Description

In Coulomb gauge QCD, there exists an instantaneous chromo-electric interaction between static quark-antiquark pairs. Studying this interaction is an effective way to probe aspects of quark confinement, as the confining behavior of this ‘Coulomb potential’ is related to the confining behavior of the Wilson potential in non-gauge fixed QCD. A clearer picture of the mechanism of confinement would then allow us to better explain aspects of the meson spectrum. We present our attempts to understand this interaction via SU(2) and SU(3) Coulomb Gauge Lattice QCD simulations on anisotropic lattices.
