A Study of Double Pomeron Exchange in ALICE

The non-Abelian nature of QCD suggests that particles that have a gluon constituent, such as glueballs or hybrids, should exist. Experiments WA76, WA91 and WA102 have performed a dedicated search for these states in central production using the CERN Omega Spectrometer. New results from central produ...

description The non-Abelian nature of QCD suggests that particles that have a gluon constituent, such as glueballs or hybrids, should exist. Experiments WA76, WA91 and WA102 have performed a dedicated search for these states in central production using the CERN Omega Spectrometer. New results from central producton show that there is a kinematical filter which can select out glueball candidates from known q-anti q states. A further study of this at high energies is essential in order to get information on the M(X°)>2 GeV region. This paper describes how this could be done using the ALICE detector at the LHC.
