After formulating the problem in terms of the generating functional of field strength cumulants, we argue that the resulting predictions about the Casimir energy are compatible with the phenomenologically required bag energy term.16 pagesHigh Energy Physics - PhenomenologyHigh Energy Physics - TheoryCasimir bag energy in the stochastic approximation to the pure QCD vacuumtext
