Scalar Quarkonium Masses

Abstract

We evaluate the valence approximation to the mass of scalar quarkonium for a range of different parameters. Our results strongly suggest that the infinite volume continuum limit of the mass of $s\overline{s}$ scalar quarkonium lies well below the mass of $f_J(1710)$. The resonance $f_0(1500)$ appears to the best candidate for $s\overline{s}$ scalar quarkonium.
