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…
In this contribution we summarize recent results on the computation of cross sections for glueball candidates production in quasi-real photon-photon collisions and on central diffraction processes, i.e. double Pomeron exchange, in heavy ion…
We here compute the reaction $ \gamma \; \gamma \rightarrow G \; \pi^{0} $ for various glueball candidates $ G $ and their assumed quantum states, using a non-relativistic gluon bound-state model for the glueball.
The QCD-like gauge theory with adjoint fermions is considered in the field correlator formalism and the total spectrum of mesons and glueballs is obtained in agreement with available lattice data. A new state of a white fermion appears, as…
We investigate the spectrum of glueballs in 3D and 4D SU(N) gauge theories. Our motivation is to determine whether the states lie on straight Regge trajectories. To this end we develop new lattice techniques to reliably determine the states…
A QCD-Pomeron composed by two non-perturbative gluons with a dynamically generated mass, is constructed in a gauge invariant way. The gluon propagator is infrared-finite. The model properly describes data on elastic scattering, exclusive…
We represent QCD at the hadronic scale by means of an effective Hamiltonian, H, formulated in the Coulomb gauge. As in the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model, chiral symmetry is dynamically broken, however our approach is renormalizable and also…
The spectrum of two-gluon glueballs below 3 GeV is investigated in a potential model with dynamical gluon mass using variational method. The short distance potential is approximated by one-gluon exchange, while the long distance part is…
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…
A new method is applied to solve the Baxter equation for three coupled, noncompact spins. Due to the equivalence with the system of three reggeized gluons, the intercept of the odderon trajectory is predicted for the first time, as the…
This compact review about gluonium focuses on a slate of theoretical efforts; among the many standing works, I have selected several that are meant to assist in the identification, among ordinary mesons, of the few Yang-Mills glueball…
It is shown that new data on the $(J^{PC}=2^{++})$-resonances in the mass range $M\sim1700-2400 $MeV support the linearity of the $(n,M^2)$-trajectories, where $n$ is the radial quantum number of quark--antiquark state. In this way all…
Motivated by the recent experimental data about candidates for glueball from different processes, we discuss in this paper the production of 0^{++} glueball from double diffractive scattering at momentum transfer |t|< 1GeV^2 in high energy…
The complete low-lying positive charge conjugation glueball spectrum is obtained from QCD. The formalism relies on the construction of an efficient quasiparticle gluon basis for Hamiltonian QCD in Coulomb gauge. The resulting rapidly…
In this work we use a mapping technique to derive in the context of a constituent gluon model an effective Hamiltonian that involves explicit gluon degrees of freedom. We study glueballs with two gluons using the Fock-Tani formalism. In the…
We recently proposed a QCD-Pomeron described by the exchange of two non-perturbative gluons characterized by a dynamically generated gluon mass. It is here shown that data on elastic scattering, exclusive $\rho$ production in deep inelastic…
In heavy ion collision simulations many hadron states and/or parton degrees of freedom are included in order to obtain the observables. Meson spectroscopy, for example, considers the $0^{++}$ meson as a mixture of $q\bar{q}$ and glue. This…
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…
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 $m_\pi\sim 938$…
The mass spectra of heavy and light mesons is computed within the framework of the relativistic flux tube model. A good agreement with the experimental data is obtained provided that the flux tube contributions, including retardation and…
