An Experimental Overview of Gluonic Mesons

arXiv:hep-ex/0308010 · doi:10.1063/1.1664298

Abstract

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 exists for both states with exotic quantum numbers and a glueball which is mixed with the nearby mesons, but a full understanding of these still requires additional information.
