Abstract

We present a study of the SU(3)SU(3) glueball spectrum for all JPCJ^{PC} values at lattice spacings down to a1=3.73(6)a^{-1}=3.73 (6) GeV (β=6.4\beta=6.4) using lattices of size up to 32432^4. We extend previous studies and show that the continuum limit has effectively been reached. The number of clearly identified JPCJ^{PC} states has been substantially increased. There are no clear signals for spin-exotic glueballs below 3 GeV. A comparison with current experimental glueball candidates is made.
