A model of light hybrid mesons and their strong decays is developed. The model employs a gluonic quasiparticle to describe low energy gluodynamics and uses the QCD Hamiltonian in Coulomb gauge to guide the construction of states and decay…
A simple constituent model of gluodynamics that is motivated by lattice field theory and the QCD Hamiltonian in Coulomb gauge is applied to descriptions of hybrid meson flavor mixing and vector hybrid configuration mixing. Good agreement…
The hybrid meson is one of the most interesting new hadron specie beyond the naive quark model. It acquire a great attention both from the theoretical and experimental efforts. Many good candidates have been claimed to be observed, but…
Besides the conventional hadrons containing valence quarks and valence antiquarks, quantum chromodynamics (QCD) suggests the existence of the hybrid hadrons containing valence gluons in addition to the quarks and antiquarks, and some…
In this talk I summarize the status of exotic mesons, including both theoretical expectations and experimental candidates. The current experimental candidates are ``spin-parity exotics''; since these are most often considered possible…
Hybrid mesons are exotic mesons in which the color field is not in the ground state. Their understanding deserves interest from a theoretical point of view, because it is intimately related to nonperturbative aspects of QCD. Moreover, it…
The hybrid mesons form a part of the exotic spectrum of the standard model. The recent observation of the isoscalar hybrid, called the $\eta_1(1855)$, provides an important step towards the completion of the $1^{-+}$ nonet. In the present…
The exploration of exotic mesons, which transcend the conventional quark-antiquark framework, is pivotal for advancing our understanding of QCD and the strong interaction. Among these, states possessing the quantum numbers $J^{PC}=1^{-+}$,…
The existence of non-q\bar{q} hadrons such as glueballs and hybrids is one of the most important qualitative questions in QCD. The COMPASS experiment offers the possibility to unambiguously identify such states and map out the glueball and…
The status of non-perturbative QCD calculations for mesons with gluonic excitation is presented. Lattice results for the glueball spectrum are reviewed. For hybrid mesons, the heavy quark results are summarised and new results are presented…
I review lattice QCD results for hybrid mesons, including a discussion of their hadronic decays.
A review of new results from lattice simulations of glueballs and heavy-quark hybrid mesons is presented.
This contribution is a brief review of the status of hybrid baryons, which are hypothetical baryons that incorporate a gluonic excitation. We first summarize the status of hybrid mesons, since this closely related topic has seen…
A review and critique of the Isgur-Paton flux tube model of hadronic physics is presented. This entails a detailed comparison with recent lattice gauge theory results which exposes both the successes and shortcomings of the model.…
QCD permits the existence of hybrid mesons that are made up of both quarks and gluons, including exotic states, i.e., quantum numbers prohibited for pure quark-antiquark states, with possible candidates found in experiments. We present…
In this paper, I review the experimental situation for both glueballs and hybrid mesons. Theoretical expectations are discussed, and a survey of what is known about hybrid mesons and glueballs is undertaken. Good experimental evidence…
We discuss the allowed decays of a hybrid meson in the heavy quark limit. We deduce that an important decay will be into a heavy quark non-hybrid state and a light quark meson, in other words, the de-excitation of an excited gluonic string…
Many new results on hadron spectra have been appearing in the past few years thanks to improved experimental techniques and searches in new channels. New theoretical techniques including refined methods of lattice QCD have kept pace with…
Hadron spectroscopy has received revitalised interest due to the discovery of states with unexpected properties. Discussed are the recent findings at BABAR, CLEO, BELLE and BES. A detailed report is given on the many experiments reporting…
We provide an overview of theoretical developments on hybrid mesons and glueballs in the last year at this turn of the millenium conference. Cracks in potential models of conventional mesons are developing. Hybrid meson adiabatic surfaces…
