Distribution of stress tensor around static quark–anti-quark from Yang–Mills gradient flow

The spatial distribution of the stress tensor around the quark–anti-quark (QQ¯) pair in SU(3) lattice gauge theory is studied. The Yang–Mills gradient flow plays a crucial role to make the stress tensor well-defined and derivable from the numerical simulations on the lattice. The resultant stress te...
