Confinement, Crossing Symmetry, and Glueballs

Abstract

We suggest that the quark-confining force is related by crossing symmetry to a color-singlet glueball $\mathcal{G}$ which is well described as a loop of one quantum of color magnetic flux. Electron pair annihilation as high as $\approx 2GeV$ above the ${\rm Y}$ mass could produce ${\rm Y}\to {\ell }^{+}{\ell }^{-}$ accompanied by $\mathcal{G}$ or one of its excited states.
