Nonperturbative and Thermal Dynamics of Confined Fields in Dual QCD by H. C. Chandola, Deependra Singh Rawat, Dinesh Yadav, H. C. Pandey, H. Dehnen

“…In order to study the detailed dynamics and associated nonperturbative features of QCD, a dual version of the color gauge theory based on a topologically viable homogeneous fibre bundle approach has been analysed taking into account its magnetic symmetry structure. In the dynamically broken phase of magnetic symmetry, the associated flux tube structure on a S2 sphere in the magnetically condensed state of the dual QCD vacuum has been analyzed for the profiles of the color electric field using flux quantization and stability conditions. …”
