Abstract

We study the decays of the light pseudoscalar mesons in a model that allows the isoscalar states to have a significant gluonium component, and show that the rates are in good agreement with experiment. The amount of radial mixing in η states determines these decays completely. This makes it difficult to test for the presence of gluonium. The radiative decays of ψ(3685) might be a better way to test for the gluonium admixture. We give estimates for the branching ratios.
