Slaughter, M D

In a nonperturbative, algebraic approach to QCD, the author presents arguments which strongly indicate that the f/sub o/(1590) is not the 0/sup ++/ scalar glueball. Specifically, the author computes the branching ratio quantities BR(G..-->..eta eta')/Br(G..-->..KK-bar)/BR(G..-->..eta eta), and BR(G..--> pi../sup 0/..pi../sup 0//BR(G..-->..eta eta) as functions of only one coupling ratio r = vertical bar , where G = pure or physical scalar glueball, and demonstrate that for no value of r are the experimental data for f/sub 0/ (1590) obtained.
