Monte Carlo simulations yield new insights into the vacuum structure.
Results support certain theoretical models of the vacuum wave functional.
Advances improve understanding of non-perturbative aspects of gauge theories.
Abstract
The first paper attempting direct calculation of the Yang-Mills vacuum wave functional was published by Greensite in 1979. I review some recent results of the determination of the vacuum wave functional in Monte Carlo simulations of SU(2) lattice gauge theory.
