THE COULOMB GAUGE CONFINEMENT SCENARIO AND THE COLOR-DEPENDENT QUARK POTENTIALS IN LATTICE QCD SIMULATIONS
Abstract
We study the color confinement of QCD with the Coulomb gauge in lattice simulations. The color-Coulomb instantaneous interaction in color-singlet channel causes a linearly rising potential at large distances. We also estimate the other color-channel forces for two-quark states, i.e. color-octet, color-sextet and color-antitriplet channels. Moreover we investigate the volume dependence of color-nonsinglet potentials on finite lattices.
