New Exact Solutions for QCD

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2007-05-23 v2

Abstract

A new class of exact quantum solutions of QCD is presented. These solutions have negative energy and are stable to all fluctuations. The lowest-energy solution state is explicitly constructed and proposed as a candidate for the QCD vacuum. This vacuum exhibits confinement in the sense that any colored quark configurations require infinite energy to create. In addition to the vacuum, other solutions include hadrons whose mass and radius are self-consistently determined as local minima of the energy.
