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.
