Confinement
> s.a. Confinement; Gribov Ambiguity;
lattice gauge theory; particle models;
types of yang-mills theories; unified theories.
* Idea: The conjecture that
all observable objects are gauge-singlet bound states of quarks and gluons;
A non-perturbative feature of non-abelian gauge theories which is not well
understood theoretically, but seems to be dominated by an abelian sector; It can
be treated in lattice theories; Phenomenologically, it seems to be describable
by the addition of a \(|F^i_{ab} F^{iab}|^{1/2}\) term to the Lagrangian.
* Question: Is it related to
the spontaneous breaking of chiral symmetry?

* Quark nuggets: Hypothetical
particles with a possibly very large baryon number; They have been proposed as possible
relics of a first-order QCD phase transitions in the early universe, that could have
survived up to now and can be regarded as a candidate for cold dark matter.
* Strangelets: Hypothetical
stable or semi-stable particles which contain strange quarks; Theorists have
predicted that such entities could survive for long periods inside neutron stars
and might be produced in the heavy ion collisions going on at the RHIC machine
at Brookhaven; Shown not to lead to dangerous runaway reactions.
