Abstract
We investigate chiral phase transitions and the screening masses, pole masses, and thermal widths of neutral pion mesons with finite temperature and magnetic field in a lattice-improved model, which is constructed by fitting the lattice results of the pseudocritical temperatures . Specifically, we find that the chiral condensate undergoes a crossover phase transition demonstrating distinct magnetic catalysis and inverse magnetic catalysis effects in very low- and high-temperature regions with fixed finite , respectively. For the screening masses, we find that the longitudinal component decreases with at very low and high temperatures and increases with near . The transverse component always increases with at fixed . However, both the longitudinal and transverse screening masses increase with at fixed . Furthermore, we find that the pole mass decreases with the increase of or . It is interesting to note that the thermal width shows similar behavior to the longitudinal screening masses in the very-high-temperature region.
