摘要
The semi-phenomenological improved holographic model for QCD is confronted with data of the pure glue, large-N-C gauge theory. After fitting two phenomenological parameters in the potential, the model can reproduce in detail all thermodynamic functions at finite temperature. It also reproduces in detail all known spin-0 and spin-2 glueball observables at zero temperature and predicts the rest of the 0(++) and 2(++) towers. A similar two parameter fit in the CP-odd sector postdicts the correct second 0(+-) glueball mass, and predicts the rest of the 0(+-) tower. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
