## Abstract

Collective modes within a hot Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) medium are obtained from the polarization tensor, considering both constant and time-varying electromagnetic fields. In both scenarios, five complex modes emerge, reliant on the wave vector ($k$), with electrical conductivity exerting significant influence. The impact of the modes on the energy loss of heavy quarks in the hot QCD medium with a background electromagnetic field has been studied by obtaining the induced electric field in terms of the polarization tensor while invoking Wong's equations. The findings are seen to be consistent with analogous approaches, reinforcing the significance of the results.

## Recorded benchmark results

A research result applies to its stated dataset, split, metric and evaluation configuration. Compare like-for-like settings, preserve the metric's unit and direction, and distinguish paper-reported results from independent reproduction. The best result recorded here is not a claim of exhaustive, current global coverage.
