Baryons from quarks in color gauge space of constant positive curvature and deconfinement
Description
Detailed account is given of the fact that the Cornell potential predicted by Lattice QCD and its recently reported exactly solvable extension to a trigonometric quark confinement potential can be placed within the context of a Coulomb-type potential in color gauge space of constant positive curvature, the 3D hypersphere. We make the case that the geometric vision on confinement provides a remarkably adequate description within a quark potential model picture of both nucleon spectrum and proton mean square charge radius and moreover opens a new venue toward quark deconfinement as curvature shut-down.
