The high-statistical KLOE data on the $\phi\to\pi^0\pi^0\gamma$ decay are described simultaneously with the data on $\pi\pi$ scattering and the $\pi\pi\to K\bar K$ reaction. The description is carried out taking into account the chiral…
Some recent results on light meson physics are reviewed. The new evidence of low mass scalar mesons together with an improved measurement of the phi radiative decays in scalar mesons, give new insight into the nature and the structure of…
$X(2370)$ 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 ($G_{0^-}$)…
By comparing SU(3)-breaking scales of linear mass formulae, it is shown that the lowest vector and scalar mesons all have a $\bar{q}q$ configuration, while the ground-state octet and decuplet baryons are $qqq$. Also, the quark-level linear…
We aim to explore the production rate of the pseudoscalar glueball in $J/\psi$ radiative decay by lattice QCD in quenched approximation. The calculation is performed on three anisotropic lattices with the spatial lattice spacing ranging…
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…
Radiative decays of the $1^3D_1$ orbital excitations of the $\rho$, $\omega$ and $\phi$ to the scalars $f_0(1370)$, $f_0(1500)$ and $f_0(1710)$ are shown to provide a flavour filter, clarifying the extent of glueball mixing in the scalar…
Anisotropic lattices are an efficient means of studying the glueballs of QCD, however problems arise with simulations of the lightest, scalar state. The mass is strongly dependent on the lattice spacing, even when a mean-field improved…
We evaluate the continuum limit of the valence (quenched) approximation to the mass of the lightest scalar quarkonium state, for a range of different quark masses, and to the mixing energy between these states and the lightest 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…
We evaluate the continuum limit of the valence (quenched) approximation to the mass of the lightest scalar quarkonium state for a range of different quark masses and to the mixing energy between these states and the lightest scalar…
In this study we present a unified phenomenological analysis of the scalar glueball and scalar meson spectra within an AdS/QCD framework in the bottom up approach. For this purpose we generalize the recently developed graviton soft-wall…
We consider glueball- (hybrid) meson mixing for the low-lying four pseudovector states. The h_1'(1380) decays dominantly to K*K with some presence in rho pi and omega eta. The newly observed h_1(1600) has a D- to S-wave width ratio to omega…
Within the increasing experimental evidence of the existence of the I=0 scalar low mass and wide \sigma meson, we review the {\it first} analysis of its quark and gluon substructure from QCD spectral sum rules and some low-energy theorems.…
I review a proposed pattern of the light scalar mesons with q\bar{q} mesons and glueball above 1 GeV and tetraquark mesoniums below 1 GeV. Several challenges and caveats of calculating these light scalar mesons with dynamical fermions are…
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 discuss the effect of the instanton induced, six-fermion effective Lagrangian on the decays of the lightest scalar mesons in the diquark--antidiquark picture. This addition allows for a remarkably good description of light scalar meson…
Motivated by the determination for the spin-parity quantum numbers of the $X(2370)$ meson at BESIII, we extend our dispersive analysis on hadronic ground states to excited states. The idea is to start with the dispersion relation which a…
Using the ``glueball dominance'' picture of the mixing between q\bar{q} mesons of different hidden flavors, we establish new glueball-meson mass relations which serve as a basis for glueball spectral systematics. For the tensor glueball…
We summarize the different features of the scalar mesons from QCD spectral sum rule analyses of the two- and three-point functions. The results do not favour the u-bar u + d-bar d interpretation of the broad and low mass sigma (0.6), and…
