Abstract: (Elsevier)
When non-abelian gauge fields are enclosed in a box with periodic boundary conditions, the spectrum of the hamiltonian becomes discrete and the energy values can be expanded in a power series of ifλ = g 2 3 (g: renormalized coupling constant) . A method to obtain these expansions is explained and worked out to one-loop order. No numbers for the low-lying levels are given here, but some interesting properties of the mass spectrum already become visible.- GAUGE FIELD THEORY: YANG-MILLS
