The study of light hadrons is central to the understanding of confinement--a unique property of QCD. The quark model describs mesons as bound states of quarks and antiquarks. LQCD and QCD-motivated models for hadrons, however, predict a…

The vast majority of hadrons observed in nature are not stable under the strong interaction, rather they are resonances whose existence is deduced from enhancements in the energy dependence of scattering amplitudes. The study of hadron…
Recent developments in calculations of the light hadron spectrum are reviewed. Particular emphasis is placed on discussion of to what extent the quenched spectrum agrees with experiment. Recent progress, both for quenched and full QCD, in…
