Disappearance of the Abrikosov vortex above the deconfining phase transition in SU(2) lattice gauge theory

Abstract

We calculate the solenoidal magnetic monopole current and electric flux distributions at finite temperature in the presence of a static quark-antiquark pair. The simulation was performed using SU(2) lattice gauge theory in the maximal Abelian gauge. We find that the monopole current and electric flux distributions are quite different below and above the finite temperature deconfining phase transition point and agree with predictions of the Ginzburg-Landau theory.PACS number(s): 11.15.Ha Typeset Using REVTEX

Baryonic flux in quenched and two-flavor dynamical QCD after Abelian projection

“…In the same figures the curves showing respective Y-Ansatz and -Ansatz predictions are plotted. We fix all parameters in the Ansätze using relations (19), (22), and (24). We see that for both full and quenched QCD at distances d < 0:5 fm the three-quark potential data agree with the -Ansatz, while at larger distances it agrees with Y-Ansatz up to an additive constant indicating that the string tension 3Q Y;ab is equal to Q Q ab as was already discussed above.…”

“…10 with the action density constructed out of three Q Q flux tube action densities multiplied, in agreement with (22), by a factor 1 2 to take into account that we are dealing with pairs of quarks rather than with Q Q pairs. Such a comparison has been done in Ref.…”

Model independent approach to studies of the confining dual Abrikosov vortex inSU(2)lattice gauge theory

“…There are a number of reviews of the subject [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]. Some of the principal directions include accounting for string tension in Abelian Wilson loops [10,11], similarly for monopole dominance of Wilson loops [12,13], correlating percolating monopole clusters and confinement [14][15][16][17], spontaneous gauge symmetry breaking (SGSB) of dual U (1) symmetry of the vacuum [18][19][20], the dual Ginzburg Landau Higgs (GLH) model [21,22] and studies of the structure of the dual Abrikosov vortex in the confining string [23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31] modeled by the dual GLH model.…”

“…The dual Ginzburg Landau Higgs model has provided much insight into the physics of dual superconductivity [21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31]. Bali et al [27,28] presented the first large lattice simulation of the dual Abrikosov vortex adding credibility to this approach to dual superconductivity.…”

On the influence of colour magnetic currents on the confining properties of SU(3) lattice gauge theory

“…It is clearly seen that a suppression of magnetic currents manifests itself in a less disordered lattice: For all sizes of Wilson loops the considered ratio is larger than one and increases with increasing size of the loops. This means that the suppression of magnetic currents (7) corresponding to geometrical objects of the size of a unit cube especially influences the behaviour of objects being large in terms of the lattice spacing, i.e. We want to point out that for the chosen parameters β = 6.0 and λ = 0.1 the average contribution of the extra term λ x,µ |J m,µ | to the total action (8) is approximately 7%.…”
