The Glue Around Quarks and the Interquark Potential [PDF]

, 1998
The quarks of quark models cannot be identified with the quarks of the QCD Lagrangian. We review the restrictions that gauge field theories place on any description of physical (colour) charges. A method to construct charged particles is presented.
