Abstract: We gauge fix 600 SU(3) β = 6.0 configurations on a 164 lattice to a simple form of the maximal abelian gauge. We project the SU(3) valued links to the U(1) × U(1) subgroup, and extract U(1) × U(1) and monopole string tensions. After gauge fixing to the indirect center gauge, the U(1) × U(1) links are projected to Z(3) and a vortex string tension is measured. The vortex and magnetic current densities are measured.
