Abstract
We compute the longitudinal electrical conductivity in the presence of a strong background magnetic field in complete leading order of perturbative QCD, based on the assumed hierarchy of scales ${\ensuremath{\alpha}}_{s}eB\ensuremath{\ll}({m}_{q}^{2},{T}^{2})\ensuremath{\ll}eB$. We formulate an effective kinetic theory of lowest Landau level quarks with the leading order QCD collision term arising from 1-to-2 processes that become possible due to $1+1$ dimensional Landau level kinematics. In the small ${m}_{q}/T\ensuremath{\ll}1$ regime, the longitudinal conductivity behaves as ${\ensuremath{\sigma}}_{zz}\ensuremath{\sim}{e}^{2}(eB)T/({\ensuremath{\alpha}}_{s}{m}_{q}^{2}\mathrm{log}(T/{m}_{q}))$, where the quark mass dependence can be understood from the chiral anomaly with the axial charge relaxation provided by a finite quark mass ${m}_{q}$. We also present parametric estimates for the longitudinal and transverse ``color conductivities'' in the presence of the strong magnetic field, by computing dominant damping rates for quarks and gluons that are responsible for color charge transportation. We observe that the longitudinal color conductivity is enhanced by the strong magnetic field, which implies that the sphaleron transition rate in perturbative QCD is suppressed by the strong magnetic field due to the enhanced Lenz's law in color field dynamics.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
