We utilize Polyakov loop correlations to study d=3+1 compact U (1) flux tubes and the static electron-positron potential in lattice gauge theory. With the plaquette field operator, in U(1) lattice gauge theory, we probe directly the components of the electric and magnetic fields. In order to improve the signal-to-noise ratio in the confinement phase, we apply the L\"uscher-Weiss multilevel algorithm. Our code is written in CUDA, and we run it in NVIDIA FERMI generation GPUs, in order to achieve the necessary efficiency for our computations. We measure in detail the quantum widening of the flux tube, as a function of the intercharge distance and at different finite temperatures T < Tc . Our results are compatible with the Effective String Theory.

  1. The spectrum of open confining strings in the large-Nc limit

    hep-lat 2025-06 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    The open flux-tube spectrum in SU(Nc) for Nc=3 to 6 shows massive axion-like states whose lightest mass, extrapolated to large Nc, is consistent with the worldsheet axion mass of the closed flux tube.

  2. On the equation of state of U(1) lattice gauge theory in three dimensions

    hep-lat 2025-01 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    The equation of state of 3D U(1) lattice gauge theory is consistent with a single massive state below T_c and a free photon gas above T_c, with no Hagedorn tower of states.
