Are there short distance non-perturbative contributions to the QCD static potential?
We find that perturbation theory fails to describe the short range static
potential as obtained from quenched lattice simulations, at least for source
separations r > 1/(6 GeV). The difference between the non-perturbatively
determined potential and perturbation theory at short distance is well
parameterised by a linear term with a slope of approximately 1.2 GeV^2 that is
significantly bigger than the string tension, sigma = 0.21 GeV^2Comment: 11 pages Latex, elsart style with 3 epsf figures, some figures and
