EXACT-SOLUTIONS OF THE YANG-MILLS EQUATIONS WITH SOURCE IN THE FORM OF 2-POINT COLOR CHARGES

We find a family of exact retarded solutions of the classical Yang-Mil ls equations with a source that consists of two point color charges th at move along arbitrary timelike worldlines in Minkowski space. The so lutions are stable with respect to small field perturbations and are t herefore suitable for playing the role of a nonperturbative gluon vacu um. It is shown that a description of confinement in the framework of classical Yang-Mills theory is impossible. Confinement is ensured by q uantum fluctuations over the constructed gluon vacuum.
