Magnetization and Magnetic Field-Induced Correction: Implications for QGP Thermal Photon Production in Magnetohydrodynamic
We investigate thermal photon emission from magnetized quark-gluon plasma (QGP) within (1+1)-dimensional relativistic magnetohydrodynamics (MHD), systematically incorporating magnetic susceptibility $χ_m$---encompassing both constant and lattice-QCD-derived temperature-dependent $χ_m(T)$ parametrizations---and weak-field quantum corrections to quark distribution functions $f_{\rm EM}$. Employing the Pu-Bjorken MHD framework, we calculate photon production rates from Compton scattering, $q\bar{q}$ annihilation, bremsstrahlung, and annihilation with rescattering, and integrate these over the QGP spacetime evolution to obtain transverse momentum ($p_T$) spectra. Our results demonstrate that photon yields are predominantly governed by the initial magnetic field strength and its temporal decay profile, with $χ_m$ exerting negligible influence in the explored parameter space. In contrast, the weak-field correction $f_{\rm EM}$ induces a distinct enhancement in thermal photon production at intermediate $p_T$. This work establishes a rigorous theoretical framework for quantifying electromagnetic observables in magnetized QGP and provides the foundation for future dissipative MHD studies incorporating spin-magnetization dynamics.
