The confining baryonic Y-strings on the lattice

In a string picture, the nucleon is conjectured as consisting of a Y-shaped gluonic string ended by constituent quarks. In this proceeding, we summarize our results on revealing the signature of the confining Y-bosonic string in the gluonic profile due to a system of three static quarks on the lattice at finite temperature. The analysis of the action density unveils a background of a filled-Δ distribution. However, we found that these Δ-shaped profiles are comprised of three Y-shaped Gaussian-like flux tubes. The length of the revealed Y-string-like distribution is maximum near the deconfinement point and approaches the geometrical minimal near the end of the QCD plateau. The action density width profile returns good fits to a baryonic string model for the junction fluctuations at large quark source separation.
