Abstract

Description

We argue that in QCD, the Debye mass requires not only a mathematical definition but also a physical one and temporal axial gauge could provide for a physical screening potential for this purpose. Unfortunately, this gauge is spoiled by problem of energy conservation rather than the well known divergence due to the double pole in the longitudinal propagator. We also show that KMS condition is violated in this gauge and is therefore not universally true.
