Confinement/deconfinement phase transition in SU(3) Yang-Mills theory in view of dual superconductivity

TL;DR

This paper investigates the confinement and deconfinement phase transition in SU(3) Yang-Mills theory using lattice simulations, focusing on the role of chromomagnetic monopoles in dual superconductivity.

Contribution

It provides numerical evidence linking chromomagnetic monopoles to the confinement/deconfinement transition in finite-temperature SU(3) Yang-Mills theory.

Findings

Chromomagnetic monopole currents are induced by chromoelectric flux in both phases.

The role of monopoles is crucial in the phase transition.

Numerical lattice simulations support the dual superconductivity picture.

Abstract

In the preceeding works, we have given a non-Abelian dual superconductivity picture for quark confinement, and demonstrated the numerical evidences on the lattice. In this talk, we discuss the confinement and deconfinement phase transition at finite temperature in view of the dual superconductivity. We investigate chromomagnetic monopole currents induced by chromoelectric flux in both confinement and deconfinement phase by the numerical simulations on a lattice at finite temperature, and discuss the role of the chromomagnetic monopole in the confinement/deconfinement phase transition.
