Abstract: (Oxford Journals)
The gauge choice which eliminates the local color charge of Yang-Mills field is discussed on a classical level. By such a gauge condition, the conserved color flux from quarks can be defined and the concept of the color confinement becomes clear. Several examples of gauge transformations which bring solutions of field equations in other gauges into this sourceless gauge are explicitly given. The Hamiltonian formalism in this gauge is briefly discussed.
