Starting from the instanton liquid model for the instanton vacuum, we derive the light-quark partition function $Z[V,T,\\hat{m}]$ in the presence of the current quark mass $\\hat{m}$ as well as the external Abelian vector and tensor fields. We calculate a two-point correlation function relevant for the magnetic susceptibility and derive it beyond the chiral limit. We obtain for the different flavors the following magnetic susceptibility: $\\chi_{u,d}< i\\psi_{u,d}^\\dagger \\psi_{u,d}>_0 \\sim 40\\sim45 {\\rm MeV}$, while $\\chi_{s}< i\\psi_s^\\dagger \\psi_s >_0 \\simeq 6\\sim 10 {\\rm MeV}$ with the quark condensate $_0$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2004-11-12T23:43:31.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "magnetic susceptibility", "qcd vacuum", "instanton vacuum", "two-point correlation function relevant", "instanton liquid model" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 13, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 664510 } } }
