’t Hooft loops, electric flux sectors, and confinement in SU„2... Yang-Mills theory
We use ’t Hooft loops of maximal size on finite lattices to calculate the free energy in the sectors of SU(2) Yang-Mills theory with fixed electric flux, as a function of temperature and ~spatial! volume. Our results provide evidence for the mass gap. The confinement of electric fluxes in the low temperature phase and their condensation in the high temperature phase are demonstrated. In a surpr...
متن کاملSchwinger particle-production mechanism for a finite-length flux tube with transverse confinement.
Previous results for the pair production probability in a strong electric field with a finite longitudinal separation are generalized to the case of a finitelength flux tube with transverse confinement. The threshold length of the flux tube, below which pair production cannot occur, increases as a result of transverse confinement. Typeset using REVTEX 1
متن کاملElectric Confinement and Magnetic Superconductors
Reinterpretation of the pioneering work of Nielsen and Olesen and others on magnetic confinement in (electric) superconductors leads to simple models which exhibit electric confinement of the type hoped for in quantum chromodynamics. "Electric" flux tubes joining "quarks" arise at a semi-classical level as a result of the existence of (pseudo) particles. The theory can be described in terms of ...
متن کاملElectric/magnetic flux tube on the background of magnetic/electric field
One of the more fascinating aspects of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) is a quark confinement. The phenomenon of the confinement of quarks is connected with a hypothesized flux tube filled with the color electric field and stretched between quark and antiquark. This situation is in contrast with the electron and positron pair where the force lines in the whole space are spread. The confinement is ...

The experimental and theoretical evidence relating spin dependence and long range confinement is reviewed. One of the simplest confinement ideas, the dynamic electric flux tube picture of Buchmüller, can be exploited to yield a complete effective Hamiltonian. In addition to pure Thomas spin-orbit splitting the other relativistic corrections are calculated. It is shown that our effective Hamilto...
