The original aim of this work was to give a brief review of gluonic mesons, to
be searched for in an experiment dedicated to central production of a relatively low mass
hadronic system, whereby rapidity gaps are possible to impose, requiring initial hadron
beams of sufficient energy and intensity. Sections 1 - 4 are devoted to this aim. The
various theoretical ingrediants, covering several decades of thinking by many, including
the author, are contained in five appendices, dedicated to specifically gluonic binaries
within QCD and their underlying Yang-Mills base structure
