Singlet-octet-glueball mixing of scalar mesons

Abstract

The mixing angles between scalar isoscalar resonances and a scalar glueball are determined from their decays into two pseudoscalar mesons. For $f_0(1370)$ and $f_0(1500)$, at most a small glueball component is admitted by the data. The decay modes of $f_0(1710)$, $f_0(1770)$, $f_0(2020)$, and $f_0(2100)$ require significant glueball fractions. Above this mass, the errors in the decay frequencies become too large to extract a glueball component. The summation of all observed glueball fractions up to 2100\,MeV yields (78\er18)\%. The glueball fractions as function of the mass are consistent with a scalar glueball at 1965\,MeV and a width of 370\,MeV as suggested by a measurement of the yield of scalar isoscalar mesons in radiative $J/\psi$ decays.
