Abstract

We study the mixing of the scalar glueball into the isosinglet mesons f0(1370)f_0 (1370), f0(1500)f_0(1500), and f0(1710)f_0(1710) to describe the two-body decays to pseudoscalars. We use an effective Hamiltonian and employ the two-angle mixing scheme for η\eta and η\eta'. In this framework, we analyse existing data and look forward to new data into η\eta and η\eta' channels. For now, the f0(1710)f_0 (1710) has the largest glueball component and a sizable branching ratio into ηη\eta\eta', testable at BESIII.
