arXiv: hep-lat/9606022 · 2009-10-28

## TL;DR

This paper investigates the continuum limit of magnetic monopole spectra in non-Abelian SU(2) gauge theories, focusing on Abelian projections and their implications for confinement and gauge fixing ambiguities.

## Contribution

It provides an analysis of monopole length spectra across different Abelian projections, including the maximally Abelian gauge, and discusses effects of Gribov copies and string tension measurements.

## Key findings

- Monopole spectra exhibit specific behaviors in the continuum limit.
- Abelian projections influence monopole structures and their physical interpretations.
- Gribov copies affect gauge fixing and monopole detection.

## Abstract

We study the continuum limit of the length spectrum of magnetic monopole structures found after various Abelian projections of pure gauge SU(2), including the maximally Abelian gauge. We comment on Gribov copies, and measurements of the string tension.
