Abstract
In this article we analyze the vacuum structure of pure SU(2) Yang-Mills using non-perturbative techniques. Monte Carlo simulations are performed for the lattice gauge theory with external sources to obtain the effective potential. Evidence from the lattice gauge theory indicating the presence of the unstable mode in the effective potential is reported.
