Scalar Glueball-qqbar Mixing above 1 GeV and implications for Lattice QCD

F. E. Close, A. Kirk

Lattice QCD predictions have motivated several recent studies of the mixing between the predicted JPC = 0++ glueball and a qqbar nonet in the 1.3 to 1.7 GeV region. We show that re…

The mixing of the f0(1370), f0(1500) and f0(1710) and the search for the scalar glueball

A. Kirk

For the first time a complete data set of the two-body decays of the f0(1370), f0(1500) and f0(1710) into all pseudoscalar mesons is available. The implications of these data for t…

Isospin breaking exposed in f0(980)- a0(980) mixing

F. E. Close, A. Kirk

We suggest that mixing between the f0(980) and a0(980), due to their dynamical interaction with the nearby KKbar thresholds, can give rise to a significantly enhanced production ra…

Dynamics of Glueball and qqbar production in the central region of pp collisions

F. E. Close, A. Kirk, G. Schuler

We explain the phi and t dependences of mesons with JPC = 0-+, 0++,1++, 2-+ and 2++ produced in the central region of pp collisions. For the 0++ and 2++ sector this reveals a syste…

A search for non-qqbar mesons in the WA102 experiment at the CERN Omega Spectrometer

A. Kirk, the WA102 Collaboration

A study of central meson production as a function of the difference in transverse momentum dPT of the exchanged particles shows that undisputed qqbar mesons are suppressed at small…
