Open publisher page 1 citations

Abstract

We analyze the vacuum structure with respect to magnetic monopoles of quenched QCD in the presence of static color sources. Distributions of the monopole density around static quarks and mesons are computed in both phases of QCD. We observe a suppression of the monopole density in the vicinity of external sources. In the confinement phase the density of color magnetic monopoles is reduced along the flux tube between a static quark-antiquark pair.
