- Abstract
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.
