Abstract
String breaking by dynamical quarks in three-dimensional lattice QCD is analyzed through measurements of the potential and the local color-electric field strength generated by a static quark-antiquark pair. Simulations were done for unquenched SU(2) color with two flavors of staggered light quarks. An improved gluon action was used, which allows simulations to be done on coarse lattices, providing an extremely efficient means to access the large quark separations and long propagation times at which string breaking occurs. The static sources were generated using Wilson loop operators, hence no light valence quarks are present in the resulting trial states. Results give unambiguous evidence of string breaking. First the static potential is shown to saturate at twice the heavy-light meson mass at large separations. Then it is demonstrated that the local color-electric field strength in the region between the heavy quarks tends towards vacuum values at large separations, the first time that this most graphic effect of quark vacuum polarization on the confining flux-tube has been realized in lattice QCD. Implications of these results for unquenched simulations of four-dimensional QCD are drawn.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
