Abstract
The lowest scalar and pseudoscalar glueball masses are evaluated by means of the time-dependent variational approach to the Yang-Mills gauge theory without fermions in the Hamiltonian formalism within a Gaussian wavefunctional approximation. The glueball mass is calculated as a pole of the propagator for a composite glueball field which consists of two massless gluons. The glueball propagator is here evaluated by using the linear response theory for the composite external glueball field. As a result, a finite glueball mass is obtained through the interaction between two massless gluons, in which the glueball mass depends on the QCD coupling constant g in the nonperturbative form.
