Thermodynamics of a heavy quark-antiquark pair in SU(3)-QCD is studied both below and above the deconfinement critical temperature $T_c$. In the quenched case, a model of the string passing through heavy valence gluons yields a correct…

Lattice QCD predicts that the potential energy between static quarks is independent of time. However, in this paper we show that the gauge invariant color singlet potential energy between static quarks in the classical Yang-Mills theory…
Recently it has been shown that infrared singularities of Landau gauge QCD can confine static quarks via a linearly rising potential. We show that the same mechanism can also provide a confining interaction between charged scalar fields in…
