Free energy of an SU(2) monopole-antimonopole pair

arXiv:hep-lat/9809113 · doi:10.1016/S0920-5632(99)85126-3

Abstract

We induce an external ${Z}_2$ monopole-antimonopole pair in an SU(2) lattice gauge system and measure its free energy as a way to probe the vacuum structure. We discuss the motivation and computational methodology of the investigation and illustrate our preliminary results.
