Abstract

We reconsider the properties of the QQ¯ flux tube within Abelian-projected SU(2) lattice gauge theory in terms of electric field and monopole current. In maximal Abelian gauge fixing, we assess the influence of Gribov copies on the apparent flux-tube profile. For the profile corresponding to optimal gauge fixing, we study the independence of the lattice spacing for β = 2.3, 2.4, and 2.5115 on a 32 4 lattice. We apply the decomposition of the Abelian Wilson loop into monopole and photon parts and compare the electric and monopole profile emerging from these three different sources with the field strength and monopole current within the DGL theory.
