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…
We perform the first lattice study on the mixing of the isoscalar pseudoscalar meson $\eta$ and the pseudoscalar glueball $G$ in the $N_f=2$ QCD at the pion mass $m_\pi\approx 350$ MeV. The $\eta$ mass is determined to be…
$X(2370)$ falls in the mass region of the lowest pseudoscalar glueball predicted by lattice QCD studies and its decay properties are similar to those of $\eta_c$. A previous lattice QCD study finds that the pseudoscalar glueball ($G_{0^-}$)…
We use Ward identities of broken scale invariance to infer the amount of scalar glueball--$\bar{q}q$ meson mixing from the ratio of quark and gluon condensates in the QCD vacuum. Assuming dominance by a single scalar state, as suggested by…
We have performed a dynamical analysis of the mixing in the pseudoscalar channel with the goal of understanding the existence and behavior of the pseudoscalar glueball. Our philosophy has not been to predict precise values of the glueball…
We compute from lattice QCD in the valence (quenched) approximation the partial decay widths of the lightest scalar glueball to pairs of pseudoscalar quark-antiquark states. These predictions and values obtained earlier for the scalar…
Computations in the quenched approximation on the lattice predict the lightest glueball to be a scalar in the 1.5-1.8 GeV region. Here we calculate the dynamical effect the coupling to two pseudoscalars has on the mass, width and decay…
We calculate the branching ratios of the lightest pseudoscalar glueball with a mass of 2.6 GeV predicted by lattice QCD by using a chiral Lagrangian. This study is relevant in view of the planned PANDA experiment at the upcoming FAIR…
We study the vacuum properties of the pseudoscalar glueball and charmed mesons by using the so-called extended Linear Sigma Model (eLSM). This model includes scalar and pseudoscalar mesons, as well as vector and axial-vector mesons. We…
We revisit the mixing mechanism for pesudscalar mesons and glueball which is introduced by the axial vector anomaly. We demonstrate that the physical mass of the pseudoscalar glueball does not favor to be lower than 1.8 GeV if all the…
We evaluate the partial decay widths of the lightest scalar glueball to pairs of pseudoscalar quark-antiquark states. The calculation is done in the valence (quenched) approximation on a $16^3 \time 24$ lattice at $\beta = 5.7$. These…
In the framework of the so-called extended linear sigma model (eLSM), we include a pseudoscalar glueball with a mass of 2.6 GeV (as predicted by Lattice-QCD simulations) and we compute the two- and three-body decays into scalar and…
The mixing of $\eta_c$ and the lowest mass pseudoscalar glueball is estimated within the framework of the instanton liquid model. It is demonstrated that the mixing is large and may explain the difference between the observed mass of the…
Calculations in unquenched QCD for the scalar glueball spectrum have confirmed previous results of Gluodynamics finding a glueball at ~ 1750 MeV. I analyze the implications of this discovery from the point of view of glueball-meson mixing…
Glueballs and other resonances with large gluonic components are predicted as bound states by Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD). The lightest (scalar) glueball is estimated to have a mass in the range from 1 to 2 GeV/c**2; a pseudoscalar and…
Lattice QCD predictions have motivated several recent studies of the mixing between the predicted JPC = 0++ glueball and a qqbar nonet in the 1.3 to 1.7 GeV region. We show that results from apparently different approaches have some common…
We deduce the mass of the pseudoscalar glueball $G$ from an $\eta$-$\eta'$-$G$ mixing formalism based on the anomalous Ward identity for transition matrix elements. With the inputs from the recent KLOE experiment, we find a solution for the…
We employ two simple and robust results to constrain the mixing matrix of the isosinglet scalar mesons $f_0(1710)$, $f_0(1500)$, $f_0(1370)$: one is the approximate SU(3) symmetry empirically observed in the scalar sector above 1 GeV and…
We consider a $N_f=3$ chiral Lagrangian which describes the interaction between the pseudoscalar glueball, $J^{PC}=0^{-+}$, and scalar and pseudoscalar mesons. We calculate the decay widths of the pseudoscalar glueball, where we fixed its…
We point out that the recent Belle measurements of the $B_{d/s} \to J/\Psi \eta^{(')}$ decays imply large pseudoscalar glueball contents in the $\eta^{(\prime)}$ meson. These decays are studied in the perturbative QCD (PQCD) approach,…
