We summarize the results of the investigation of the $IJ^{PC}=00^{++}$ wave which is devoted to the search for the lightest scalar glueball. In the framework of the K-matrix formalism, the $q\bar q$-nonet classification of the…
Basing on the results of the K-matrix fit of $(IJ^{PC}=00^{++})$ wave, we analyze the analytic structure of the amplitude and $q \bar q$/glueball content of resonances in the mass region 1200-1900 MeV, where an extra state for $q \bar…
Recently performed investigations of meson spectra allow us to determine the resonance structure for the waves $IJ^{PC}=00^{++}$, $10^{++}$, $02^{++}$, $12^{++}$ = $IJ^P= 1/2 0^+$ in the mass region up to 1900 MeV, thus establishing the…
The lightest gluonic meson is expected with J^{PC}=0^{++}, calculations in full QCD point towards a mass of around 1 GeV. The interpretation of the scalar meson spectrum is hindered as some states are rather broad. In a largely…
Existence of gluonic resonances is among the early expectations of QCD. Today, QCD calculations predict the lightest glueball to be a scalar state with mass within a range of about 900-1700 MeV but there is no consensus about its…
We discuss the theoretical expectations and phenomenological evidence for the lightest glueballs and the members of the meson nonet with quantum numbers J^PC=0^{++}. We reconsider the recent evidence for candidate states with masses below…
Recent results concerning the evidence and classification of the J^{PC}=0^{++} states, obtained with P. Minkowski, are presented: The isoscalars f_0(980) and f_0(1500) are classified as members of the 0^{++} nonet, while the broad state…
According to the QCD expectations the lightest glueball should be a scalar particle (J^{PC}=0^{++}). Different scenarios have been considered for a classification of these states but -- despite considerable progress in recent years -- the…
We present the results of the current analysis of the partial wave IJ^{PC}=00^{++} based on the available data for meson spectra (pi-pi, K\bar K, eta-eta, eta-eta', pi-pi-pi-pi). In the framework of the K-matrix approach, the analytical…
It is commonly believed that the lowest-lying scalar glueball lies somewhere in the isosinglet scalar mesons $f_0(1370), f_0(1500)$ and $f_0(1710)$ denoted generically by $f_{0}$. In this work we consider lattice calculations and…
The evidence for the low mass J^{PC}=0^{++} states is reconsidered. We suggest classifying the isoscalars f_0(980) and f_0(1500) as members of the 0^{++} nonet, with a mixing rather similar to that of the pseudoscalars \eta' and \eta. The…
A K-matrix re-analysis of the K-pi S-wave is performed in the mass region 900-2100 MeV, and solutions which describe the data well are found. The solution with two resonances in the (IJ^P=1/2 0^+)-wave has poles at (1415 pm 25)- i(165 pm…
We discuss the classification of the light scalar mesons with mass below 2 GeV into q qbar nonets and glueballs. The information on production and decay of these states, in particular recent information on f_0(980), f_0(400-1200) (or…
Calculations within QCD (lattice and sum rules) find the lightest glueball to be a scalar and with mass in the range of about 1000-1700 MeV. Several phenomenological investigations are discussed which aim at the identification of the scalar…
A collective treatment of the I=0 scalar mesons below 2 GeV [sigma (550), f0(980), f0(1370), f0(1500) and f0(1710)] in a non-linear chiral Lagrangian framework that is constrained by the mass and the partial decay widths of the I=1/2,1…
Basing on the latest results of the PNPI (Gatchina) and QM&W College (London) groups, I discuss systematics of the IJ^{PC} q anti-q states in terms of trajectories on the (n,M^2) plane, where n is the radial quantum number and M is its…
Within a nonlinear chiral Lagrangian framework, the underlying mixings among quark-antiquark, four-quark and glue components of $f_0(1500)$ and $f_0(1710)$ are studied in a global picture that includes all isosinglet scalar mesons below 2…
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…
We show that the newly discovered scalar meson $f_0(1500)$ at LEAR has properties compatible with the lightest scalar glueball predicted by lattice QCD and incompatible with a $\qqbar$ state. We suggest that decays of glueballs are into…
Lattice gauge calculations predict the existence of glueballs. In particular a scalar glueball is firmly expected at a mass of about 1730 MeV. This prediction has led to an intense study of scalar isoscalar interactions and to the discovery…
