Lattice Computation of a Magnetic Monopole Mass

High Energy Physics - Lattice 2011-04-20 v1

Abstract

A single magnetic monopole in pure SU(2) gauge theory is simulated on the lattice and its mass is computed in the full quantum theory. The results are relevant for our proposed realization of the dual superconductor hypothesis of confinement.
