Visualization of topological objects in QCD
Abstract
Recently evidence appeared that instantons and monopoles have a certain local correlation in four-dimensional pure SU(2) and SU(3) gauge theory. We visualize several specific gauge field configurations and show directly that there is an enhanced probability for finding maximally projected abelian monopole loops in the vicinity of instantons. This feature is independent of the topological charge definition used.
