Magnetic response of baryon properties in a skyrmion model

An axially symmetric ansatz is proposed to investigate the properties of baryon in a uniform magnetic field. The baryon number is shown to be conserved, while the baryon shape is stretched along the magnetic field. It is found that with increasing magnetic field strength, the static mass of the baryon first decreases and then increases, while the size of the baryon first increases and then decreases. Finally, in the core part of the magnetar, the equation of state strongly depends on the magnetic field, which modifies the mass limit of the magnetar.
