Topography of the cooled $\cal{O}(3)$ vacuum

High Energy Physics - Lattice 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

We investigate the {\it topography\/} of the \o3 vacuum after various degrees of under-relaxed cooling, using the na\"{\i}ve action density and geometric and field theoretical definitions of the topological charge density. The results are presented graphically. (This is a cutdown version of the full paper which is available via anonymous ftp to suna.amtp.liv.ac.uk in /pub/pss/. The figures missing from this version are available from the same site.)
