Perturbative quantum chromodynamics in a cavity

BRS invariant Quantum Chromodynamics is quantized in a static spherical cavity, subject to the boundary conditions of the MIT group. Using the Gell-Mann and Low theorem and a modified version of Goldstones theorem we formulate perturbation theory. In 4th order perturbation theory we calculate the Feynman diagrams corresponding to configuration mixing-and two gluon annihilation. The results are inserted into the MIT bag model and compared with hadron spectra.
