Tachyon Condensation in a Chromomagnetic Center Vortex Background

The chromomagnetic vacuum of SU(2) gluodynamics is considered in the background of a finite radius flux tube (center vortex) with a homogeneous field inside and a zero field outside. In this background, there are tachyonic modes. These modes cause an instability. It is assumed that the self-interact...
