SUMMARY:New perspectives on quark confinement\, Physics Department Col
 loquium\, Philip Argyres\, University of Cincinnati
DESCRIPTION:The confinement of quarks inside protons and neutrons is t
 hought to follow from the theory of the strong force\, quantum chromod
 ynamics (QCD).  By now very convincing numerical evidence for this has
  been found by computer simulations of QCD\, but an actual derivation 
 of confinement using analytical techniques has resisted all attempts t
 o date.  This talk will review the concepts and problems involved in t
 rying to explain confinement analytically\, and will present some rece
 nt work that sheds light on when and how confinement arises when QCD a
 nd similar theories are given periodic boundary conditions in one spat
 ial direction.
