Abstract

The gluon field is considered, postulating that its field oscillators can be considered as a system of bosons, so that the distribution of gluon oscillators takes the form of the Bose distribution. It is shown that (1) the perturbative QCD is ultraviolet finite, (2) the perturbative static potential of quarks is asymptotically linear in r, and (3) the force between two quarks vanishes rapidly as r goes to zero. Asymptotic freedom and the ultimate high-energy limit are studied, and it is predicted that the probability of producing glueballs with moments larger than a certain value will be greatly suppressed. The universal distribution for all other field oscillators pushes the asymptotic freedom of other interactions to higher momenta and suppresses the existence of large-momentum states of particles in nature.
