Flux tubes and string breaking in three dimensional SU(2) Yang-Mills theory

19 May 2020  ·  Bonati Claudio, Morlacchi Silvia ·

We consider the three dimensional SU(2) Yang-Mills theory with adjoint static color sources, studying by lattice simulations how the shape of the flux tube changes when increasing the distance between them. The disappearance of the flux tube at string breaking is quite abrupt, but precursors of this phenomenon are present already when the separation between the sources is smaller than its critical value, a fact that influences also some details of the static potential.
