Abstract

We present results from magnetic monopoles in SU(2)SU(2) lattice gauge theory at finite temperature. The lattices are 163×Nt16^{3}\times N_{t}, for Nt=4,6,8,12N_{t}=4,6,8,12, at β=2.5115\beta=2.5115. Quantities discussed are: the spacial string tension, Polyakov loops, and the screening of timelike and spacelike magnetic currents.
