Abstract

The Fierz rearrangement, based on the various internal symmetries of hadrons, can be used to study their decay properties in a largely model-independent way. In this Letter we apply this method to calculate the relative branching ratios of two-gluon glueballs with JPC=0++/0+J^{PC} = 0^{++}/0^{-+} and three-gluon glueballs with JPC=0++/1+J^{PC} = 0^{++}/1^{+-}. In total, we derive nearly one hundred ratios for these glueballs. Our results suggest that the f0(1710)f_0(1710) and η(2370)\eta(2370) likely contain a significant gluon component, whereas the gluon component in f0(1500)f_0(1500) appears to be small. Furthermore, we propose observing the three-gluon glueball with JPC=0++J^{PC} = 0^{++} in the ππω\pi\pi\omega and KKˉϕK\bar{K}\phi channels, and the three-gluon glueball with JPC=1+J^{PC} = 1^{+-} in the ππω\pi\pi\omega, ππϕ\pi\pi\phi, and KKˉϕK\bar{K}\phi channels. This study enhances our understanding of the gluonic structure of exotic hadrons and will assist future experimental searches in high-energy physics.
