  It is a long-standing question whether the confinement of matter fields in
QCD has an imprint in the (gauge-dependent) correlation functions, especially
the propagators. In particular in the quenched case a fundamental difference
could be expected between adjoint and fundamental matter. In a preceding
investigation the propagator of a fundamental scalar has been studied, showing
no obvious sign of confinement. Here, complementary, the adjoint scalar
propagator is investigated over a wide range of parameters in the minimal
Landau gauge using lattice gauge theory. This study is performed in two, three,
and four dimensions in quenched SU(2) Yang-Mills theory, both in momentum space
and position space. No conclusive difference between both cases is found.
