We construct the gravitational solution of theWitten-Sakai-Sugimoto model by introducing a magnetic field on the flavor brane. Taking into account their backreaction, we re-solve type IIA supergravity in the presence of a magnetic field. Our calculation shows that the gravitational solutions are magnetically dependent and analytic both in the bubble (confined) and black brane (deconfined) case. We study the dual field theory at the leading order in the ratio of the number of flavors and colors, and also in the Veneziano limit. Some physical properties related to the hadronic physics in an external magnetic field are discussed by using our confined backreaction solution holographically. We also investigate the thermodynamics and holographic renormalization of this model in both phases by our solution. Since the backreaction of the magnetic field is considered in our gravitational solution, it allows us to study the Hawking-Page transition with flavors and colors of this model in the presence of the magnetic field. Finally we therefore obtain the holographic phase diagram with the contributions from the flavors and the magnetic field. Our holographic phase diagram is in qualitative agreement with the lattice QCD result, which thus can be interpreted as the inhibition of confinement or chirally broken symmetry by the magnetic field.
