Abstract
We investigate the dual superconductivity hypothesis in pure SU(2) lat tice gauge theory. We find evidence of the dual Meissner effect both i n the maximally Abelian gauge and without gauge fixing. We also obtain a rather good extimation of the string tension using the value of the London penetration length.
