Disappearance of the Abrikosov vortex above the deconfining phase transition in SU(2) lattice gauge theory

We calculate the solenoidal magnetic monopole current and electric flux distributions at finite temperature in the presence of a static quark antiquark pair. The simulation was performed using SU(2) lattice gauge theory in the maximal Abelian gauge. We find that the monopole current and electric flux distributions are quite different below and above the finite temperature deconfining phase transition point and agree with predictions of the Ginzburg-Landau effective theory.

SU(2) finite temperature phase transition and Michael sum rules

We studied the finite temperature phase transition of SU(2) gauge theory on four-dimensional Euclidean lattices by Monte Carlo simulations, and measured the flux distributions of a $q\bar q$ pair in both confined and unconfined phases. We reviewed and generalized Michael sum rules to include finite temperature effects. To compare our flux data with predictions of Michael sum rules, we studied the behavior of string tension with temperature. Our data agree well with the generalized sum rules.

SU(2) Flux Distributions on Finite Lattices

We studied SU(2) flux distributions on four dimensional euclidean lattices with one dimension very large. By choosing the time direction appropriately we can study physics in two cases: one is finite volume in the zero temperature limit, another is finite temperature in the the intermediate to large volume limit. We found that for cases of beta > beta crit there is no intrinsic string formation. Our lattices with beta > beta crit belong to intermediate volume region, and the string tension in this region is due to finite volume effects. In large volumes we found evidence for intrinsic string formation.
