Abstract

The effect of quark anomalous magnetic moment (AMM) to chiral restoration and deconfinement phase transitions in baryon chemical potential-temperature (μBT) plane under magnetic fields is investigated in frame of a Pauli-Villars regularized Polyakov-extended Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model, which is an extension of our previous paper [Mei and Mao,Phys. Rev. D 102, 114035 (2020)] at finite temperature and vanishing baryon chemical potential. It is found that the quark AMM plays the role of inverse catalysis to the phase transitions, and large quark AMM will change the magnetic catalysis phenomena of phase transitions to inverse magnetic catalysis in the whole μBT plane. For a fixed magnetic field, the critical temperature Tc and critical baryon chemical potential μBc decreases with quark AMM. The stronger the magnetic field is, the inverse catalysis effect of AMM becomes more important. For a small AMM κ=κ1, it shows the magnetic catalysis effect for critical temperature Tc at vanishing μB with increasing magnetic field, and (inverse) magnetic catalysis effect for critical baryon chemical potential μBc at vanishing T under (weak) strong magnetic field. At finite T and μB, there exist some crossings of the phase transition lines with different magnetic field. For a large AMM κ=κ2, we obtain the inverse magnetic catalysis effect in the whole μBT plane, and no crossings of phase transition lines happen.
