Spectrum of the open QCD flux tube and its effective string description I: 3d static potential in SU(N = 2, 3)

Abstract We perform a high precision measurement of the static q q ¯ $$ q\overline{q} $$ potential in three-dimensional SU(N) gauge theory with N = 2, 3 and compare the results to the potential obtained from the effective string theory. In particular, we show that the exponent of the leading order c...
