Abstract
Scalar and tensor glueball spectrum is studied using an improved gluonic ac tion on asymmetric lattices in the pure SU(3) gauge theory. The smallest sp atial lattice spacing is about 0.08 fm which makes the extrapolation to the continuum limit more reliable. In particular, attention is paid to the sca lar glueball mass which is known to have problems in the extrapolation. Con verting our lattice results to physical units using the scale set by the st atic quark potential, we obtain the following results for the glueball mass es: MG(0(++)) = 1730(90)MeV for the scalar glueball mass and M-G(2(++)) = 2 400(95)MeV for the tensor glueball.
