Abstract
We study properties of spacelike monopole trajectories in the Maximal Abelian gauge of quenched SU(2) QCD at finite temperature. We concentrate on infrared monopole clusters which are responsible for the confinement properties of the theory. We determine numerically the effective action of the monopoles projected onto the three-dimensional time-slice. Then we derive the length distributions of the monopole loops and fix their entropy.
