“…This observation stimulates the search for other semiclassical gluonic objects that could be responsible for confinement. Among them are merons [39,40], calorons with non-trivial holonomy [41,42], BPS monopoles or dyons [43,44], vortices [45,46], etc. I describe briefly these objects below.…”

The aim of this review is to demonstrate that there exists a coherent picture of strong interactions, based on instantons. Starting from the first principles of Quantum Chromodynamics -via the microscopic mechanism of spontaneous chiral symmetry breakingone arrives to a quantitative description of the properties of light hadrons, with no fitting parameters. The discussion of the importance of instanton-induced interactions in soft high-energy scattering is new.

“…The state with p = 0 and q = 1 is a monopole, while states with p = 0 and q = 1 are dyons. Their field configurations are explicitly known in the form of the Prasad-Sommerfield solution [4]. It is a difficult question whether the other dyon states exist as well in the field theory.…”
