Marco Cardoso, Pedro Bicudo, Nuno Cardoso
TL;DR
This study uses quenched lattice QCD to analyze how quark-antiquark flux tubes form and recombine, revealing the influence of distance and system configuration on flux tube properties.
Contribution
It introduces an improved multihit and smearing technique to compute color fields and explores flux tube behavior in various multi-quark systems.
Findings
Flux tube profiles depend on quark-antiquark separation
Recombination effects are observed in multi-quark systems
Ground and excited state flux fields differ with system configuration
Abstract
In this work we compute the color fields in the mediator plane between a static quark and a static antiquark using quenched lattice QCD. In special, we see the effect of the quark-antiquark distance on the flux tube. To obtain this results an improved multihit technique is developed and an extend smearing technique is used. Then, we also discuss the flux-tubes in a system composed of two quarks and two antiquarks. The ground and first excited states fields are studied for different dispositions of the system.
