Nuclear Physics Seminar

"Glueballs: Expectations, Status, and Experimental Prospects"

Presented by Ted Barnes, ORNL/University of Tennessee

Tuesday, May 29, 2007, 11:00 am — Small Seminar Room, Bldg. 510

QCD anticipates unusual types of hadrons in which the gluonic degree of freedom is excited. These are known as glueballs (if dominantly composed of gluons) and hybrids (if strongly mixed between quark and glue basis states). In this talk I will review theoretical expectations for glueballs, the status of the current best experimental candidates, and the prospects for studying these states in future at experimental facilities, including RHIC. Hybrid exotics will also be discussed.
