Glueballs at Physical Pion Mass

Abstract

We study glueballs on two $N_f=2+1$ RBC/UKQCD gauge ensembles with physical quark masses at two lattice spacings. The statistical uncertainties of the glueball correlation functions are considerably reduced through the cluster decomposition error reduction (CDER) method. The Bethe-Salpeter wave functions are obtained for the scalar, tensor and pseudoscalar glueballs by using spatially extended glueball operators defined through the gauge potential $A_{\mu }(x)$ in the Coulomb gauge. These wave functions show similar features of non-relativistic two-gluon systems, and they are used to optimize the signals of the related correlation functions at the early time regions. Consequently, the ground state masses can be extracted precisely. To the extent that the excited state contamination is not important, our calculation gives glueball masses at the physical pion mass for the first time.
