Abstract
Using a new type of simulation algorithm for the standard SU(3) lattice gauge
theory that yields results with unprecedented precision, we confirm the
presence of a $\gamma/r$ correction to the static quark potential at large
distances $r$, with a coefficient $\gamma$ as predicted by the bosonic string
theory. In both three and four dimensions, the transition from perturbative to
string behaviour is evident from the data and takes place at surprisingly small
distances.
