Gauge fixing by unitary transformations in QCD

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-10-28 v1

Abstract

The unitary gauge fixing technique is applied to the QCD hamiltonian formulated in terms of angular variables. It is demonstrated that in this formulation projections on the physical Hilbert space are unnecessary to separate physical and unphysical degrees of freedom. Therefore the application of the unitary gauge fixing technique can be extended to the operator level.
