Abstract
The propagator for gluons in a space-time dependent field is derived. This is accomplished by solving the equation of motion for the gluonic Green's functions. Subsequently a relationship between the quark and the gluon propagator is presented. With its help characteristics of the bosonic propagator can be obtained from those of the fermionic and vice versa. Finally, this relation is discussed for the special case of ultrarelativistic collisions in the semiclassical limit.
