Gluon-Meson Duality in the Mean Field Approximation
C.Wetterich
TL;DR
This paper explores gluon-meson duality in QCD using a mean field approach, suggesting that gluons can behave like mesons through a Higgs-like mechanism, resulting in realistic hadron masses.
Contribution
It introduces a mean field computation supporting gluon-meson duality as a plausible phenomenon in QCD, with implications for understanding hadron mass generation.
Findings
Realistic masses for light mesons and baryons obtained
Gluon-meson duality modeled as a Higgs mechanism in gauge-fixed QCD
Supports the plausibility of gluon-meson duality in the QCD vacuum
Abstract
In a gauge-fixed language gluon-meson duality can be described as the Higgs mechanism for ``spontaneous symmetry breaking'' of color. We present a mean field computation which suggests that this phenomenon is plausible in QCD. One obtains realistic masses of the light mesons and baryons.
