Abstrakt
We compute the topological susceptibility for the SU(3) Yang--Mills theory by
employing the expression of the topological charge density operator suggested
by Neuberger's fermions. In the continuum limit we find r_0^4 chi = 0.059(3),
which corresponds to chi=(191 +/- 5 MeV)^4 if F_K is used to set the scale. Our
result supports the Witten--Veneziano explanation for the large mass of the
eta'.
