William W. Tucker, John D. Stack

TL;DR
This paper introduces a generalized Maximal Abelian Gauge (MAG) in SU(3) lattice gauge theory, applying it to various lattice sizes and beta values, and measures related physical quantities such as Wilson loops and magnetic currents.
Contribution
It proposes a new generalized MAG for SU(3) lattice gauge theory and explores its implications through lattice simulations and measurements.
Findings
Successful implementation of the generalized MAG on different lattice sizes.
Measurement of U(1)xU(1) Wilson loops and magnetic current densities.
Potential insights into abelian projection in non-Abelian gauge theories.
Abstract
We introduce a generalized Maximum Abelian Gauge (MAG). We work with this new gauge on 12^4 lattices for beta=5.7,5.8 and 16^4 lattices for beta=5.9,6.0. We also introduce a form of abelian projection related to the generalized MAG. We measure U(1)xU(1) wilson loops and single color magnetic current densities.
