Abstract

I review what lattice QCD simulations have to tell us about the glueball spectrum. We see that the various lattice calculations are in good agreement with each other. They predict that prior to mixing with nearby flavour singlet quarkonia the lightest glueball states are the scalar at 1.61 ± 0.15 GeV, the tensor at 2.26 ± 0.22 GeV, and the pseudoscalar at 2.19 ± 0.32 GeV.
