The Structure of Flux Tubes in Maximal Abelian Gauge
Abstract
Various field strength correlators are investigated in the maximal abelian projection of pure SU(2) lattice gauge theory. High precision measurements of the colour fields, monopole currents, their curl and divergence allow for detailed checks of the dual superconductor scenario. A further decomposition of abelian observables into monopole and photon parts reveals that the flux tube is built up from the monopole part alone.
