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…
The scalar mesons f0(1370), f0(1500) and f0(1710) are of interest as there is as yet no consensus of their status, or indeed of the existence of the f0(1370). Radiative decays to rho and omega have been shown to provide effective probes of…
The mixing between the $f_2(1270)$, the $f_2(1525)$, and the $2^{++}$ glueball is determined and tested. The mass and the hadronic decay widths of the $G_2$ and the branching ratio $B(J/\psi\rightarrow\gamma G_2)$ are predicted.
The scalar glueball is observed in a coupled-channel analysis of the $S$-wave amplitude from BESIII data on radiative $J/\psi$ decays and further data. Ten scalar isoscalar resonances were required to fit the data. Five of them were…

We summarize some features of the vector meson dominance model which was recently proposed for studying radiative decays involving the scalar mesons. Using the experimental values of $\Gamma(a_0 \to \gamma\gamma)$, $\Gamma(f_0 \to…
The tensor glueball is searched for in BESIII data on radiative $J/\psi$ decays into $\pi^0\pi^0$ and $K_sK_s$. The $\pi\pi$ invariant mass distribution exhibits an enhancement that can be described by a pole at $(2210\pm 60) -i(180\pm…
The $\rho(1450)$ vector meson ($\rho^\prime$) is becoming increasingly important to properly describe precision observables. We analyse a set of decay modes and cross sections, in the low-energy regime, to determine the role played by this…
