Abstract
Various models of QCD vacuum predict that it is dominated by excitations that are predominantly self-dual or anti self-dual. In this work we look at the tendency for self-duality in the case of pure-glue SU(3) gauge theory using the overlap-based definition of the field-strength tensor. To gauge this tendency, we use the absolute X-distribution method which is designed to quantify the {\em dynamical} tendency for polarization for arbitrary random variables that can be decomposed in a pair of orthogonal subspaces.

| $E_6$ | $32^4$ | $(1.76\fm)^4$ | 20 | $0.055\fm$ |
The number of configurations in each ensemble is given by the number of dmatrix files computed.
