We argue that the experimental decay rates of the f0(1500) meson into two pseudoscalar mesons and into two photons are incompatible with a quark-antiquark state and that the f0(1710) meson is dominantly an ssbar state.

We study the mixing structure of isospin-singlet scalars, the light quarkonium $(\bar{q}q)$ and glueball $(gg)$ in two-flavor QCD, based on a holographic model of bottom-up hard-wall type. In the model the pure quarkonium and glueball…
Using flavor SU(3) symmetry for the light quarks validated by the available experimental data, we propose an intuitive way to hunt for a scalar glueball in B decays. In the presence of mixing between the glueball and ordinary scalar mesons,…
We present a study of {\it finite} $a$ and {\it volume} effects of the leptonic decay constant $f$ of heavy pseudoscalar mesons in the static approximation. This study is performed on a number of lattices at $\beta=$ 5.74,~6.0 and 6.26…

Despite the apparent simplicity of meson spectroscopy, light scalar mesons cannot be accommodated in the usual $q\bar q$ structure. We study the description of the scalar mesons below 2 GeV in terms of the mixing of a chiral nonet of…
Starting from the $0^{++}$ glueball mass and wave function computed from lattice QCD, we compute the local potential between two constituent gluons. Since the properties of constituent gluons are still a matter of research, we allow for…
