Quark Confinement in QCD and New Bosons

Abstract

If the dual Meissner effect due to abelian monopole condensation is the quark confinement mechanism of QCD as suggested in recent Monte-Carlo simulations of lattice QCD, new axial-vector and scalar bosons with the mass of O(1GeV) would appear as physical states which are different from ordinary hadrons and glueballs. The axial-vector boson can not decay into ordinary color-singlet hadrons and glueballs owing to a remainig global discrete permutation symmetry with respect to colors (Weyl symmetry) if the vacuum respects the symmetry as suggested from lattice MC simulations.
