SU(2) flux distributions on finite lattices.

We studied SU(2) flux distributions on four dimensional Euclidean lattices with one dimension very large. By choosing the time direction appropriately we can study physics in two cases: one is finite volume in the zero temperature limit, another is finite temperature in the intermediate to large volume limit. We found that for cases of β > βc there is no intrinsic string formation. Our lattices with β > βc belong to the intermediate volume region, and the string tension in this region is due to finite volume effects. In large volumes we found evidence for intrinsic string formation. Typeset using REVTEX
