Chiral symmetry and conf<strong>in</strong>ement<br />
● Connection between chiral symmetry and<br />
conf<strong>in</strong>ement<br />
● Removal of conf<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g properties removes<br />
also chiral symmetry break<strong>in</strong>g<br />
● Seem to be l<strong>in</strong>ked by collective<br />
(topological) excitations<br />
● Not understood<br />
– But some progress <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> last years<br />
