TY - JOUR A1 - Endrődi, Gergely A1 - Kaminski, Matthias A1 - Schäfer, Andreas A1 - Wu, Jackson A1 - Yaffe, Laurence T1 - Universal magnetoresponse in QCD and N=4 SYM T2 - Journal of high energy physics N2 - Using recent lattice data on the thermodynamics of QCD in the presence of a background magnetic field, we show that the ratio of transverse to longitudinal pressure exhibits, to good accuracy, a simple scaling behavior over a wide range of temperature and magnetic field, essentially depending only on the ratio T/B $$ T/\sqrt{B} $$. We compare this QCD response to the corresponding magnetoresponse in maximally supersymmetric Yang Mills theory. Given suitable calibrations defining the comparison, we find excellent agreement. This may be viewed as a further test of the applicability of holographic models for hot QCD.
