Center vortices and colour confinement in lattice QCD
R. Bertle, M. Faber, J. Greensite, S. Olejnik
TL;DR
This paper reviews lattice QCD evidence supporting the hypothesis that center-vortex condensation is a key mechanism behind colour confinement in quantum chromodynamics.
Contribution
It provides a comprehensive review of lattice evidence indicating center-vortex condensation as a candidate for explaining colour confinement.
Findings
Lattice simulations support the role of center vortices in confinement
Center-vortex condensation correlates with confinement signals
Evidence suggests vortex removal destroys confinement
Abstract
We review lattice evidence showing that center-vortex condensation is a serious candidate for the mechanism of colour confinement in quantum chromodynamics.
