Static spherically symmetric solutions of the classical Yang-Mills equations

  • 1. Helsinki Univ. (Finland). Research Inst. for Theoretical Physics

Description

All spherically symmetric solutions with time-independent fields are found for the classical Yang-Mills equations with an extended charge in the case of the SU(2) gauge group. There is a physically different solution corresponding to each choice of an arbitrary function of radius. In all solutions the energy and the charge are reduced compared to the Coulomb solution. For certain solutions the reduced charge and all fields outside the source vanish. (Auth.)
