It is shown analytically that for half-integer $j$ and $j'$ in the confinement phase the potential rises linearly, whereas for integer $j$ and half-integer $j'$ it rises infinitely which means a strong suppression of the combination of such states . For integer $j$ and $j'$ the potential shows Debay screening and Coulomb behavior in the deconfinement phase >. It is also shown, that $<χ^{(j)}> \backsim <χ>^{2j}$ when $<χ> \gtrsim1$ and is in agreement with the mean field theory prediction, and $<χ^{(j)}> \backsim <χ>$ for $<χ> \lesssim1$ which agrees with MC experiment. String tension model-computed for sources invariant under center group transformations demonstrates Casimir scaling in the intermediate distance regime and turns into zero at large distances.High Energy Physics - Latticetext
