Analytic Quantization of the QCD String

Abstract

We perform an analytic semi-classical quantization of the straight QCD string with one end fixed and a massless quark on the other, in the limits of orbital and radial dominant motion. We compare our results to the exact numerical semi-classical quantization. We observe that the numerical semi-classical quantization agrees well with our exact numerical canonical quantization.
