Abstract

We address the problem of observed charmonium decays which should be forbidden in perturbative QCD. We examine the model in which these decays proceed through a gluonic component of the J/Ψ and the ηc, arising from a mixing of (c c) and glueball states. We give some bounds on the values of the mixing angles and propose the study of the p p ϕϕ reaction, at s 3 GeV, as an independent test of the model.
