Monopole percolation in pure gauge compact QED.
The role of monopoles in quenched compact QED has been studied by measuring the cluster susceptibility and the order parameter n max /n tot previously introduced by Hands and Wensley in the study of the percolation transition observed in non-compact QED. A correlation between these parameters and the energy (action) at the phase transition has been observed. We conclude that the order parameter...
متن کاملMonopole action from vacuum configurations in compact QED
It is possible to derive a monopole action from vacuum configurations obtained in Monte-Carlo simulations extending the method developed by Swendsen. We apply the method to compact QED both in the Villain and in the Wilson forms. The action of the natural monopoles in the Villain case is in fairly good agreement with that derived by the exact dual transformation. Comparing the monopole actions,...
متن کاملMonopole percolation in scalar QED
One of the most challenging unsolved questions that arise in the application of lattice theory to particle physics is to understand the nature of the phase structure of lattice Quantum Electrodynamics. Numerical simulations of pure gauge Lattice QED with periodic boundary conditions and using the compact gauge action S = β cos θ show the existence of a first order phase transition [1]. This avo...
متن کاملAre there Local Minima in the Magnetic Monopole Potential in Compact QED?
We investigate the influence of the granularity of the lattice on the potential between monopoles. Using the flux definition of monopoles we introduce their centers of mass and are able to realize continuous shifts of the monopole positions. We find periodic deviations from the 1/r-behavior of the monopole-antimonopole potential leading to local extrema. We suppose that these meta-stabilities m...
متن کاملThe Universality Class of Monopole Condensation in Non-compact, Quenched Lattice Qed
Finite size scaling studies of monopole condensation in noncompact quenched lattice QED indicate an authentic second order phase transition lying in the universality class of four dimensional percolation. Since the upper critical dimension of percolation is six, the measured critical indices are far from mean-field values. We propose a simple set of ratios as the exact critical indices for this...
