QCD HAMILTONIAN APPROACH FOR THE GLUEBALL SPECTRUM

A new, comprehensive relativistic many-body approach utilizing the Cou lomb gauge QCD Hamiltonian is advanced for hadron physics. The formali sm properly incoporates renormalization for regularizing divergences a nd also manifests the Nambu-Goldstone realization of chiral symmetry. Using standard many-body techniques, calculations for the constitutuen t quark, gluon condensates and masses and gluon spectrum are found to be in good agreement with QCD sum-rules and quenched lattice gauge res ults.
