This work reports the first calculation of the gravitational form factors (GFFs) of the scalar glueball, performed via lattice field theory in Yang-Mills theory at a single lattice spacing. The glueball GFFs are compared with those of other…
I present a detailed SUSY QCD calculation of the decay rate of the lightest Higgs boson $H^0_2$\ into two gluons, where all quarks and scalar quarks are taken within the relevant loop diagrams. I include the mixing of all the scalar…
Standard Monte Carlo simulations have been performed on improved lattices to measure the wave functions and sizes of the scalar and tensor glueballs at four lattice spacings in the range $a= 0.05 - 0.145$ fm. Systematic errors from…
The pseudoscalar mesons with the masses higher than 1 GeV are assumed to belong to the meson decuplet including the glueball as the basis state supplementing the standard $SU(3)_F$ nonet of light $q\bar{q}$ states $(u,d,s)$. The decuplet is…
We formulate an extended linear $\sigma$ model of a quarkonia nonet and a tetraquark nonet as well as a complex iso-singlet (glueball) by virtue of chiral symmetry $SU_L(3) \times SU_R(3)$ and $U_A(1)$ symmetry. In the linear realization…
We perform a glueball-relevant study on isoscalars based on anisotropic $N_f=2$ lattice QCD gauge configurations. In the scalar channel, we identify the ground state obtained through gluonic operators to be a single-particle state through…
In a U(3)x U(3) quark chiral model of the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio type with the 't Hooft interaction, the ground scalar isoscalar mesons and a scalar glueball are described. The glueball (dilaton) is introduced into the effective meson…
In this work, we analyze the energy density and the stress distribution inside the pion derived from gravitational form factors in top-down holographic QCD. In particular, we show that the dominance of the scale anomaly in the confining…
We include instanton effects in QCD sum rules for coupled scalar glueballs and mesons. We find a light glueball/sigma as in earlier studies without instantons, but in a lattice-type pure instanton model the light glueball/sigma is not…
A comprehensive, relativistic many-body approach to hadron structure is advanced based on the Coulomb gauge QCD Hamiltonian. Our method incorporates standard many-body techniques which render the approximations amenable to systematic…
We revisit the $U(1)_A$ anomaly in the holographic model of low-energy QCD by Witten, Sakai, and Sugimoto, presenting a new and direct derivation of the Witten-Veneziano mechanism for generating the mass of the $\eta'$ through an anomalous…
In our phenomenological analysis of the spectroscopy of light scalar mesons we do not find compelling evidence for the existence of the low mass \kappa(900) or \sigma(600) states nor for f_0(1370) as single resonance. If the f_0(980) and…
We study the glueball spectrum in the supersymmetric and non-supersymmetric 4D non-commutative dipole gauge theory from the holographic description. We adopt the semiclassical WKB approximation to solve the dilaton and antisymmetric tensor…
We report the masses of the lightest spin-0 and spin-2 glueballs obtained in an extensive lattice study of the continuum and infinite volume limits of $Sp(N_c)$ gauge theories for $N_c=2,4,6,8$. We also extrapolate the combined results…
Within the framework of the generalized linear sigma model, a comprehensive analysis of scalar and pseudoscalar glueballs and their mixing with mesons is presented. The Lagrangian of the model contains two chiral nonets, a quark-antiquark…

We study a holographic model dual to walking/conformal technicolor (W/C TC) deforming a hard-wall type of bottom-up setup by including effects from techni-gluon condensation. We calculate masses of (techni-) $\rho$ meson, $a_1$ meson, and…
The properties of scalar mesons and glueballs at finite temperature are analyzed through a {\it bottom-up} holographic approach. We focus on the spectral functions and mass spectra. A discussion on hadron dissociation and deconfinement…
Following the discovery of two new scalar mesons, $f_0(1370)$ and $f_0(1500)$ at the Low Energy Antiproton Ring at CERN, we argue that the observed properties of this pair are incompatible with them both being $\qqbar$ mesons. We show…
The recent BESIII announcement of a pseudoscalar glueball candidate makes an update on glueballs from lattice QCD timely. A brief review of how glueballs are studied in lattice QCD is given, and the reasons that glueballs are difficult to…
