"Confining Bond Rearrangement in the Random Center Vortex Model";
Physical Review D, 93 (2015), 054007; 1 - 12.



English abstract:
We present static meson-meson and baryon-anti-baryon potentials in Z(2) and Z(3) random center vortex models for the infrared sector of Yang-Mills theory, i.e., hypercubic lattice models of random vortex world-surfaces. In particular, we calculate multiple Polyakov loop correlators corresponding to static meson-meson resp. baryon-anti-baryon configurations in a center vortex background and observe that their expectation values follow the minimal area law, displaying bond
rearrangement behavior, a characteristic expected for the confining dynamics of the strong interaction. The static meson-meson and baryon-anti-baryon potentials are compared with theoretical
predictions and lattice QCD simulations.

Keywords:
Center vortices, infrared effective theory, confinement, meson-meson and baryon-anti-baryon potential
