Tensor polarizability of the vector mesons from $SU(3)$ lattice gauge theory

Abstract: The magnetic dipole polarizabilities of the vector $\rho^0$ and $\rho^{\pm}$ mesons in $SU(3)$ pure gauge theory are calculated in the article. Based on this the authors explore the contribution of the dipole magnetic polarizabilities to the tensor polarization of the vector mesons in external abelian magnetic field. The tensor polarization leads to the dilepton asymmetry observed in non-central heavy ion collisions and can be also estimated in lattice gauge theory.
