SO(N) gauge theories in 2+1 dimensions: Glueball spectra and confinement

We calculate the spectrum of light glueballs and the string tension in a number of SO(N) lattice gauge theories in 2+1 dimensions, with N in the range 3 ≤ N ≤ 16. After extrapolating to the continuum limit and then to N = ∞ we compare to the spectrum and string tension of the SU(N → ∞) gauge theory...
