Hadronic production of glueballs

Summary, in English

Cross sections for glueball production in hadron-induced reactions are estimated using the gluon-gluon fusion mechanism. For pp → θ(1700, J^PC = 2⁺⁺)X one finds σ_θ ∼ 2-10 mb in ISR-collider energy range. This cross section should give a clean experimental signal given the substantial KK decay mode observed in ψ → γθ.
