Multiflavor QCD in two dimensions: Breakdown of local color symmetry and liberation of massive quarks
Abstract
It is shown that in two-dimensional, multiflavor QCD with one massless flavor, local color symmetry is broken spontaneously and the gluons rendered massive by means of the Schwinger mechanism. The massive quarks are thereby liberated.
