TY - JOUR T1 - Gluon chain formation in presence of static charges JF - Physical Review D Y1 - 2012 A1 - Aaron Ostrander A1 - Santopinto, E. A1 - Szczepaniak, A. P. A1 - Vassallo, A. AB - We consider the origins of the gluon chain model. The model serves as a realization of the dynamics of the chromoelectric flux between static quark-antiquark sources. The derivation is based on the large-NC limit of the Coulomb gauge Hamiltonian in the presence of a background field introduced to model magnetic charge condensation inducing electric confinement.
