Hamiltonian Formulation of the Schwinger Model: Non-Confinement and Screening of the Charge

We solve the massless Schwinger model exactly in Hamiltonian formalism on S1. We construct physical states explicitly and its physical consequences, such as the chiral symmetry breaking or the screening of charges, are discussed. We show how charges are getting to be screened with time and show that we cannot understand the screening mechanism by naive particle picture.
