Finite size effects in the free energy density for Abelian (anti-)self-dual gluon field in $SU(3)$ gluodynamics

Sergei N. Nedelko, Vladimir E. Voronin

Finite-size effects in the free energy density for Abelian (anti-)self-dual gluon field are investigated within $SU(3)$ gluodynamics. In particular, the role of gluon quasi-zero mo…
