color confinement

His last subjects of research were color confinement and noncommutative quantum field theory.

This phenomenon is known as color confinement: quarks never appear in isolation.

Due to postulated colour confinement, these cannot exist individually.

This introduces a scale, which is the scale at which colour confinement occurs.

Isolated gluons do not occur at low energies because they are color-charged, and subject to color confinement.

This phenomenon is called color confinement.

However, the postulated phenomenon of color confinement permits only bound states of gluons, forming massive particles.

Color confinement is verified by the failure of free quark searches (searches of fractional charges).

Eventually, color confinement would be lost and an extremely hot plasma of freely moving quarks and gluons would be formed.

In QCD this phenomenon is called color confinement; it implies that only hadrons, not individual free quarks, can be observed.

Although quarks also carry color charge, hadrons must have zero total color charge because of a phenomenon called color confinement.

Although gluons are massless, they are never observed in detectors due to colour confinement; rather, they produce jets of hadrons, similar to single quarks.

As another piece in the colour confinement puzzle 't Hooft introduced 't Hooft operators, which are the magnetic dual of Wilson loops.

T. Kugo and I. Ojima are commonly credited with the discovery of the principal QCD color confinement criterion.

Its dual warped throat provides a geometric description of color confinement and chiral symmetry breaking; it has been used in model building for cosmology and particle physics.

Much of his research focused on the problem of colour confinement in QCD, i.e. the observational fact that only colour neutral particles are observed at low energies.

Color confinement, often simply called confinement, is the physics phenomenon that color charged particles (such as quarks) cannot be isolated singularly, and therefore cannot be directly observed.

Because of a phenomenon known as color confinement, a hadron cannot have a net color charge; that is, the total color charge of a particle has to be zero ("white").

While the latter is well understood in the framework of the Standard Model at high energies, it is much more complicated in low energies due to color confinement and asymptotic freedom.

Dual superconductor models posit that condensation of these magnetic monopoles in a superconductive state explains colour confinement - the phenomenon that only neutrally coloured bound states are observed at low energies.

Although the constituent quarks also carry color charge (nothing to do with visual color), a property of the strong nuclear force called color confinement requires that any composite state carry no residual color charge.

This property is covered in more detail in the relevant QCD articles (QCD, color confinement, lattice gauge theory, etc.), although not at the level of rigor of mathematical physics.

Unfortunately, most of the processes can not be calculated directly with Perturbative QCD, since one cannot observe free quarks and gluons due to color confinement - the hadron structure has a nonperturbative nature.

Unlike quantum electrodynamics (QED), the strong coupling constant of the constituents of a proton makes the calculation of hadronic properties, such as the proton mass and color confinement, a most difficult problem to solve.

Due to a phenomenon known as color confinement, quarks are never directly observed or found in isolation; they can be found only within hadrons, such as baryons (of which protons and neutrons are examples), and mesons.
