Bose-Einstein condensation of charged scalar and vector particles may actually occur in presence of a constant homogeneous magnetic field, but there is no critical temperature at which condensation starts. The condensate is described by the statistical distribution. The Meissner effect is possible in the scalar, but not in the vector field case, which exhibits a ferromagnetic behavior.
