Potential between external monopole and antimonopole in SU(2) lattice glu odynamics
Abstract
We present the results of a study of the free energy of a monopole pair in pure SU(2) theory at finite temperature, both below and above the deconfinement tran sition. We find a Yukawa potential between monopoles in both phases. At low temp erature, the screening mass is compatible with the lightest glueball mass. At hi gh temperature, we observe an increased screening mass with no apparent disconti nuity at the phase transition.
