D 73, 014516 (2006)] We study the extended linear sigma model with a pseudoscalar glueball,, which has a mass of about 2.6 GeV as predicted by lattice QCD calculation.

4. Two experiments related to our work : 1. PANDA experiment at the FAIR facility. It will be capable to scan the mass region above 2.5 GeV. 1. BESIII experiment. A pseudoscalar glueball with mass 2.37 GeV could be the resonance X(2370 )

5. An effective interacting Lagrangian with the glueball chiral symmetry where is a dimensionless coupling constant, Ğ is pseduoscalar glueball and is a multiplet of the scalar and pseudoscalar quark-antiquark states and are the generators of the group. The multiplet transforms as and it is invariant under but not under.

7. The assignment of the quark-antiquark fields is as follows: (i) In the pseudoscalar fields (pion) and K(kaons). The bare fields are the non- strange and strange mixing contributions of the physical state and [W. I. Eshraim, S. Janowski, F. Giacosa and D. H. Rischke (2012) [arXiv: 1208.6474 [hep-ph]].

8. (ii) In the scalar sector we assign the field to the physical isotriplete state (1450) and the kaons fields to the physical isodoublt state (1430). Finally, the non-strange and strange bare fields are assigned to the physical isoscalar resonances (1370) and (1710). The mixing of the bare fields is neglected.

10. A. Scenario with as a prediction for the PANDA experiment In this scenario we set the bare mass of the pseudoscalar glueball, according to the lightest pseudoscalar-isoscalar glueball obtained from lattice QCD simulations. B. Scenario with with respect to the BESIII experiment The calculations in second scenario are implemented with respect to the results of the experiment BESIII, where the resonance X(2370) was observed and therefore we used as the physical mass of the pseudoscalar glueball.
