Abstract
A classical, static non-Abelian gauge-field configuration with singularities along a line is exhibited and its effect on cross sections for massless fermion creation computed. It is shown that, while the effect of such a configuration on inclusive processes is negligible at high energy, its contribution to certain differential processes can be substantial, even to the point of dominating over the nominally leading, perturbative results.Keywords
