Description
Following the discovery of two new scalar mesons f0(1370) and f0(1500) at the Low Energy Antiproton Ring at CERN, we argue that the observed properties of this pair are incompatible with them both being QQ| mesons. We show instead that f0(1500) is compatible with the ground state glueball expected around 1500 MeV mixed with the nearby states of the 0++QQ| nonet. Tests of this hypothesis include the prediction of a further scalar state f0'(1500 endash 1800) which couples strongly to KK|, ηη, and ηη'. Signatures for a possible tensor glueball at ∼2 GeV are also considered. copyright 1995 The American Physical Society
