Abstract

We calculate the k=2 string tensions in SU(4) and SU(5) gauge theories in 3+1 dimensions, and compare them to the k=1 fundamental string tensions. We find, from the continuum extrapolation of our lattice calculations, that K(k=2)/K(k=1) = 1.40(8) in the SU(4) gauge theory, and that K(k=2)/K(k=1) = 1...
