We calculate the cross section for the exclusive production of J^{PC}=0^{++} glueballs G_0 in association with the J/psi in e^+e^- annihilation using the pQCD factorization formalism. The required long-distance matrix element for the…
We review the current theoretical situation with regard to the anomalously large cross section for exclusive J/psi + eta_c production in e^+ e^- annihilation, as measured by BELLE Collaboration.
We review the charmonium production in $e^+e^-$ annihilation at $\sqrt{s}=10.6GeV$. NRQCD predictions for the $J/\psi$ production are compared with the recent measurements by BaBar and Belle. A NRQCD calculation for the $D$-wave charmonium…
In e^+e^- annihilation at \sqrt{s}=10.6 GeV Belle Collaboration found, that J/psi mesons are predominantly produced in association with an extra \bar{c}c pair. The possible mechanisms of J/psi production are discussed and the probability of…
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…
If the vector glueball exists in the mass range that theory suggests, its resonance production cross section can be seen in e+e- annihilation only if the decay width is very narrow (< a few MeV). Otherwise it willbe observed only indirectly…
Because glueballs are SU(3)_{Flavor} singlets, they are expected to couple equally to u,d, and s quarks, so that equal coupling strengths to \pi^+\pi^- and K^+K^- are predicted. However, we show that chiral symmetry implies the scalar…
The recent data for $J/\psi$ hadronic decays from BES raise ``puzzles" about the scalar meson properties, which are different from the naive OZI rule expectation. In this work, we study the implications of a glueball-$Q\bar{Q}$ mixing…
The analysis of the vector isoscalar excitations in the energy range between 1 and 2 GeV of the $e^+e^-$ annihilation is presented for the final states $\pi^+\pi^-\pi^0$, $\omega\pi^+\pi^-$, $K^+K^-$, $K^0_SK^\pm\pi^\mp$ and…
The cross section for $e^+ e^- \to \pi^+ \pi^- J/\psi$ between 3.8 GeV and 5.5 GeV is measured with a 967 fb$^{-1}$ data sample collected by the Belle detector at or near the $\Upsilon(nS)$ ($n = 1,\ 2,\ ...,\ 5$) resonances. The Y(4260)…
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…
We provide the first explanation of the counter-intuitive scalar glueball couplings to pseudoscalar mesons found in lattice QCD and predict hitherto uncalculated decay modes. Significant a_1 pi and (pi pi)_S (pi pi)_S couplings are found.…
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…
We report the first observation of a new charmonium state at a mass of $(3.943 \pm 0.006 \pm 0.006) {GeV}/c^2$. This state, called X(3940), is observed in the process $e^+ e^- \to J/\psi X(3940)$ in the spectrum of masses recoiling against…
The search for the ground state scalar glueball G_0 is reviewed. Spin zero glueballs will have unique dynamical properties if the <G_0|\bar qq> amplitude is suppressed by chiral symmetry, as it is to all orders in perturbation theory: for…

We carry out the first lattice QCD derivation of the mixing energy and the mixing angle of the pseudoscalar charmonium and glueball on two gauge ensembles with $N_f=2$ degenerate dynamical charm quarks. The mixing energy is determined to be…
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…
Scalar glueball is implemented in single nonet linear sigma model (SNLSM) which basically includes lowest lying scalar and pseudoscalar mesons. Our new version of SNLSM involves mixing among scalar matter fields and glueball field which is…
