QCD Vacuum as Domain Wall Network

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2016-12-09 v1

Abstract

Domain model of confinement, chiral symmetry breaking and hadronization is based on description of QCD vacuum gluon configurations as an ensemble of almost everywhere homogeneous Abelian (anti-)self-dual fields. The ensemble can be explicitly constructed as domain wall network. We shortly overview this approach and within this framework discuss the effects of QCD vacuum polarization by strong electromagnetic fields. It is stressed that such polarization effects can play the role of trigger for deconfinement.
