In a scalar approximation the distribution of a gluon condensate in a glueball is calculated. In this approximation the SU(3) gauge fields are separated on two parts: (1) is the $SU(2) \subset SU(3)$ subgroup, (2) is the coset $SU(3) /…
We study the interactions of the pseudoscalar glueball with scalar and pseudoscalar quark-antiquark meson fields and with the nucleon and its chiral partner. In both cases we introduce the corresponding chiral Lagrangian and discuss its…
Data taken with the ALEPH detector at LEP1 have been used to search for gamma gamma production of the glueball candidates f0(1500) and fJ(1710) via their decay to pi+pi-. No signal is observed and upper limits to the product of gamma gamma…
We study the glueballs properties at finite temperature using SU(3) lattice QCD at the quenched level with the anisotropic lattice. We use the tree-level Symanzik O(a^2) improved action. We present our preliminary results which shows the…

We develop tools to determine the gluonic content of a resonance of known mass, width and $J^{PC}$ from its branching fraction in radiative quarkonium decays and production cross section in $\gamma \gamma$ collisions. We test the procedures…

A simple mixing scheme describing the $f_0(1500)$ and the $f_0(1700)$ as mixed states of a $\bar s s$ meson and a digluonium is reconsidered at the light of new experimental data.
We study the strong and electromagnetic decay properties of scalar mesons above 1 GeV within a chiral approach. The scalar-isoscalar states are treated as mixed states of quarkonia and glueball configurations. A fit to the experimental…
The lowest-lying glueballs are investigated in lattice QCD using $N_f=2$ clover Wilson fermion on anisotropic lattices. We simulate at two different and relatively heavy quark masses, corresponding to physical pion mass of $m_\pi\sim 938$…

$\Upsilon(1s)\to\gamma(\eta',\eta, f_2(1270))$ are studied by an approach in which the glueball components of these mesons play dominant role. Strong dependence on quark mass has been found in the decays $(J/\psi,…
We include the $\eta_c$ meson into the $\eta$-$\eta'$-$G$ mixing formalism constructed in our previous work, where $G$ represents the pseudoscalar gluball. The mixing angles in this tetramixing matrix are constrained by theoretical and…
The scalar glueball $G$ is the lightest particle of the Yang-Mills sector of QCD, with a lattice predicted mass of about $m_{G}\simeq1.7$ GeV. It is natural to investigate glueball-glueball scattering and the possible emergence of a bound…
The phenomena of strong running coupling and hadron mass generating have been studied in the framework of a QCD-inspired relativistic model of quark-gluon interaction with infrared confined propagators. We derived a meson mass equation and…
Data on $J/\Psi \to \gamma (\rho\rho)$ demand a broad $0^-$ $\rho\rho$ signal, attributable to a glueball with a mass of 1750--2100 MeV. Decays of this broad state to $\rho\rho$, $\omega\omega$, $K^*\bar K^*$ and $\phi \phi$ channels agree…
Using holographic QCD based on D4-branes and D8-anti-D8-branes, we have computed couplings of glueballs to light mesons. We describe glueball decay by explicitly calculating its decay widths and branching ratios. Interestingly, while…
