We calculate the rho meson mass in a weak magnetic field using effective $rhopipi$ interaction. It is seen that both $rho^0$ and $rho^pm$ masses decrease with the magnetic field in vacuum. $rho$ meson dispersion relation has been calculated and shown to be different for $rho^0$ and $rho^pm$. We also calculate the $rhopipi$ decay width and spectral functions of $rho^0$ and $rho^pm$. The width is seen to decrease with $eB$ and the spectral functions become narrower.

A symmetry-preserving treatment of mesons, within a Dyson-Schwinger and Bethe-Salpeter equations approach, demands an interconnection between the kernels of the quark gap equation and meson Bethe-Salpeter equation. Appealing to those symmetries expressed by the vector and axial-vector Ward-Green-Takahashi identitiges (WGTI), we construct a two-body Bethe-Salpeter kernel and study its implications in the vector channel; particularly, we analyze the structure of the quark-photon vertex, which explicitly develops a vector meson pole in the timelike axis and the quark anomlaous magnetic moment term, as well as a variety of $rho$ meson properties: mass and decay constants, electromagnetic form factors, and valence-quark distribution amplitudes.
We compute dilepton invariant mass spectra from the decays of rho mesons produced by photon reactions off nuclei. Our calculations employ a realistic model for the rho photoproduction amplitude on the nucleon which provides fair agreement with measured cross sections. Medium effects are implemented via an earlier constructed rho propagator based on hadronic many-body theory. At incoming photon energies of 1.5 -3 GeV as used by the CLAS experiment at JLAB, the average density probed for iron targets is estimated at about half saturation density. At the pertinent rho-meson 3-momenta the predicted medium effects on the rho propagator are rather moderate. The resulting dilepton spectra approximately agree with recent CLAS data.
We use the microscopic GiBUU transport model to calculate dilepton ($e^+e^-$) production in heavy-ion collisions at SIS18 energies focusing on the effect of collisional broadening of the $rho$-meson. The collisional width of the $rho$-meson at finite temperature and baryon density in nuclear matter is calculated on the basis of the collision integral of the GiBUU model. A systematic comparison with HADES data on dilepton production in heavy-ion collisions is performed. The collisional broadening of the $rho$ improves the agreement between theory and experiment for the dilepton invariant-mass distributions near the $rho$ pole mass and for the excess radiation in Au+Au at $1.23 A$ GeV. We furthermore show that some remaining underprediction of the experimental dilepton spectra in C+C at $1 A$ GeV and Au+Au at $1.23 A$ GeV at intermediate invariant masses $0.2-0.4$ GeV can be accounted for by adjusting the $pn$ bremsstrahlung cross section in a way to agree with the inclusive dilepton spectrum from $dp$ collisions at $1.25 A$ GeV.
A detailed study of the analytic structure of 1-loop self energy graphs for neutral and charged $rho$ mesons is presented at finite temperature and arbitrary magnetic field using the real time formalism of thermal field theory. The imaginary part of the self energy is obtained from the discontinuities of these graphs across the Unitary and Landau cuts, which is seen to be different for $rho^0$ and $rho^pm$. The magnetic field dependent vacuum contribution to the real part of the self energy, which is usually ignored, is found to be appreciable. A significant effect of temperature and magnetic field is seen in the self energy, spectral function, effective mass and dispersion relation of $rho^0$ as well as of $rho^pm$ relative to its trivial Landau shift. However, for charged $rho$ mesons, on account of the dominance of the Landau term, the effective mass appears to be independent of temperature. The trivial coupling of magnetic moment of $rho^pm$ with external magnetic field, when incorporated in the calculation, makes the $rho^pm$ to condense at high magnetic field.
We find a general expression for the one-loop self-energy function of neutral $rho$-meson due to $pi^+pi^-$ intermediate state in a background magnetic field, valid for arbitrary magnitudes of the field. The pion propagator used in this expression is given by Schwinger, which depends on a proper-time parameter. Restricting to weak fields, we calculate the decay rate $Gamma(rho^0 rightarrow pi^+ +pi^-)$, which changes negligibly from the vacuum value.
