Abstract

The \ensuremathη_L(1410) component of the \ensuremathη(1440) pseudoscalar has strong affinity for glue. But its mass is incompatible with lattice simulations that predict a much higher value for the 0^\ensuremath-+ glueball. Consequently it has been suggested that \ensuremathη_L(1410) signals physics beyond the Standard Model. Here we argue that if glueballs are closed gluonic fluxtubes then \ensuremathη_L(1410) is a prime candidate for the 0^\ensuremath-+ glueball.
