A model of nonperturbative vacuum in SU(2) Yang–Mills theory coupled to a nonlinear spinor field is suggested. By analogy with Abelian magnetic monopole dominance in quantum chromodynamics, it is assumed that the dominant contribution to such a vacuum comes from dipole-like field configurations existing in this theory. Using an assumption of the behavior of the number density of dipole-like field configurations whose energy approaches infinity, we derive an approximate expression for the energy density of such nonperturbative vacuum symmetrical under translation that turns out to be finite, unlike the infinite energy density of perturbative vacuum. Using characteristic values of the parameters appearing in the expression for the nonperturbative energy density, it is shown that this density may be of the order of the energy density associated with Einstein’s cosmological constant. The physical interpretation of the spinor field self-coupling constant as a characteristic distance between dipole-like field configurations is suggested. The questions of experimental verification of the nonperturbative vacuum model under consideration and of determining its pressure are briefly discussed. Full article

This paper is devoted to the dual superconductor model of confinement in the 4D Yang–Mills theory. In the first part, we consider the latter theory compactified on a torus, and use the dual superconductor model in order to obtain the Polchinski–Strominger term in the string representation of a Wilson loop. For a certain realistic critical value of the product of circumferences of the compactification circles, which is expressed in terms of the gluon condensate and the vacuum correlation length, the coupling of the Polchinski–Strominger term turns out to be such that the string conformal anomaly cancels out, making the string representation fully quantum. In the second part, we use the analogy between the London limit of the dual superconductor and the low-energy limit of the 4D compact QED, to obtain the partition function of the dual superconductor model away from the London limit. There, we find a decrease of the vacuum correlation length, and derive the corresponding potential of monopole currents. Full article
