摘要
We present a method for locating center vortices ("fluxons") in thermalized lattice gauge field configurations. We find evidence, in lattice Monte Carlo simulations, that the asymptotic string tension of fundamental representation Wilson loops is due to fluctuations in the number of center vortices linking those loops.
