Comment on `Glueball spectrum from a potential model'

Abstract

In a recent article, W.-S. Hou and G.-G. Wong [Phys. Rev. D {\bf 67}, 034003 (2003)] have investigated the spectrum of two-gluon glueballs below 3 GeV in a potential model with a dynamical gluon mass. We point out that, among the 18 states calculated by the authors, only three are physical. The other states either are spurious or possess a finite mass only due to an arbitrary restriction of the variational parameter.
