Heavy quarkonia in strong magnetic fields

We investigate the influence of a homogeneus and constant strong external magnetic field on the heavy-meson spectrum. Quarkonium states $c\bar{c}$ and $b\bar{b}$ are described within a non-relativistic framework and by means of a suitable potential model based on the Cornell parametrization. In particular, in this work we propose a model which takes into account the possible anisotropies emerging at the level of the static quark-antiquark potential, as observed in recent lattice studies. The investigation is perfomed both with and without taking into account the anisotropy of the static potential, in order to better clarify its effects
