Confinement as Felt by Hadrons
نویسندگان
چکیده
Properties of phase transitions are conveniently investigated using order parameters. However, the order parameter may not always be phenomenologically accessible. Besides, in nature most fields are non-order parameter fields. This lead to the question whether it is possible to extract relevant information about, or even identify, the onset of a phase transition using nonorder parameter fields. We predict a universal behavior of a non order parameter field induced by the order parameter field near and at the phase transition. We also illustrate how to extract relevant features of the deconfining phase transition by monitoring the critical properties of the physical excitations [ 1, 2, 3, 4].

Pseudospin, Spin, and Coulomb Dirac-symmetries: Doublet Structure and Supersymmetric Patterns
The Dirac equation serves as the basis for the relativistic description of atoms, nuclei and hadrons. In atoms the relevant potentials felt by the electron are Coulombic vector potentials. A Dirac Hamiltonian with a Coulomb potential exhibits a finestructure spectrum with characteristic two-fold degeneracy. Relativistic mean fields in nuclei generated by meson exchanges , and quark confinement ...
متن کاملSection a : Confinement Mechanism , Flux Tubes and Strings
An overview of some issues discussed is given, including the following ones: (i) the mechanism of confinement, (ii) the structure of the string, (iii) nonperturbative glue in vacuum and hadrons, and (v) quark-hadron duality. In doing so I try to indicate issues important for JLab. Finally I discuss another issue debated during this conference, namely (vi) whether one can use some common effecti...
متن کاملQuark Confinement in QCD and New Bosons
If the dual Meissner effect due to abelian monopole condensation is the quark confinement mechanism of QCD as suggested in recent Monte-Carlo simulations of lattice QCD, new axial-vector and scalar bosons with the mass of O(1GeV) would appear as physical states which are different from ordinary hadrons and glueballs. The axial-vector boson can not decay into ordinary color-singlet hadrons and g...

Particle production in central S-A collisions at 200 GeV/A energy is analysed within a thermal model. Present data imply that the strange particles freeze out at a higher temperature than the non-strange particles and that the strangeness saturation is incomplete. Introduction: A significant enhancement of strange particle production has been observed in high energy heavy ion collisions in comp...
متن کاملConfinement and the Vortex Vacuum of Su(2) Lattice Gauge Theory
Considering the nuclear force between hadrons as residuum of a confining force between the constituents of the hadrons explains why the understanding of quark confinement acquires highest priority in modern medium energy physics. In this context, lattice gauge theory 1 provides a convenient tool since it covers the non-perturbative aspects of quantum field theory which are important for the low...
