Thickness and Color Structure of Center Vortices in Gluonic SU(2) QCD
In search for an effective model of quark confinement we study the vacuum of SU(2) quantum chromodynamic with lattice simulations using Wilson action. Assuming that center vortices are the relevant excitations causing confinement, we analyzed their physical size and their color structure. We present...

| description | In search for an effective model of quark confinement we study the vacuum of SU(2) quantum chromodynamic with lattice simulations using Wilson action. Assuming that center vortices are the relevant excitations causing confinement, we analyzed their physical size and their color structure. We present confirmations for a vanishing thickness of center vortices in the continuum limit and hints at their color structure. This is the first time that algorithms for the detection of thick center vortices based on non-trivial center regions has been used. |
