Are there monopoles in the quark-gluon plasma?
arXiv:1802.10509 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.97.114028
Abstract
Monopole-like objects have been identified in multiple lattice studies, and there is now a significant amount of literature on their importance in phenomenology. Some analytic indications of their role, however, are still missing. The 't Hooft-Polyakov monopoles, originally derived in the Georgi-Glashow model, are an important dynamical ingredient in theories with extended supersymmetry , and help explain the issues related with electric-magnetic duality. There is no such solution in QCD-like theories without scalar fields. However, all of these theories have instantons and their finite- constituents known as instanton-dyons (or instanton-monopoles). The latter leads to semiclassical partition functions, which for theories were shown to be identical ("Poisson dual") to the partition function for monopoles. We show how, in a pure gauge theory, the semiclassical instanton-based partition function can also be Poisson-transformed into a partition function, interpreted as the one of moving and rotating monopoles.
