heal.abstract	We calculate the lowest-lying ""glueball"" mass in three-dmensional Yang-Mills theory based on the SU(2) gauge group by using the source method. Good scaling was observed in the range 4.5≤β≤5.5. We obtain mgα=(8.6±0.8)/β or, in terms of the string tension, mgα = (5.8±0.7) σ. We discuss its relivance for the gluon plasma and we report the value λ-1=(2.15±0.20)g2(T)T for the confinement static sorrelation lenght for the SU(2) gluon plasma. © 1987.	en
