Abstract
Magnetic susceptibility in the deconfined phase of QCD is calculated
in a closed form using a recent general expression for the quark gas pressure
in magnetic field. Quark selfenergies are entering the result via Polyakov line
factors and ensure the total paramagnetic effect, increasing with temperature.
A generalized form of magnetic susceptibility in nonzero magnetic field suitable
for experimental and lattice measurements is derived, showing a
good agreement with available lattice data.
