Hamiltonian Lattice QCD near the Light Cone

Abstract

We give a status report of our work on light cone Hamiltonian lattice QCD. We have derived an effective Hamiltonian $H_{eff}$ which is only quadratic in the momenta and therefore can be simulated by standard methods. For this Hamiltonian we determine variationally an approximate ground state wave functional in the light cone limit.
