Hadron Spectroscopy: Hadron Spectroscopy
- Igor Strakovsky (The George Washington University)
We'll review the recent developments in pi, eta and vector meson photoproduction at JLab energies. We'll see the theoretical implications of the factorization between the meson dynamics and the target and compare them to the new data obtained by the GlueX detector.
We'll discuss the photoproduction of eta-pi^0 and the sensibility of the observables to the exotic P-wave. We'll present a new...
A Pomeron-exchange model of the $\gamma p \to J/\psi p$ reaction has been used to make predictions for the on-going experiments at JLab. The parameters of the Pomeron-exchange amplitudes are determined by fitting the total cross section data of $\gamma p \to J/\psi p$ up to very high energy W = 300 GeV. To provide information for the search of nucleon resonances with hidden charm...
Lattice QCD allows us to probe the low-lying hadron spectrum in finite-volume using a basis of single- and multi-hadron interpolating operators. Here we examine the effect of including tetraquark operators on the spectrum in the scalar meson sectors containing the $K_0^*(700)/\kappa$ and the $a_0(980)$. We present preliminary results outlining additional states found using tetraquark...
The large data sample accumulated by the Belle experiment at KEKB asymmetric energy $e^+ e^-$ collider provides opportunities to study charmonia (bottomonia) and charmonium-like (bottomonium-like) exotic particles. In this presentation, we report recent results on these topics from Belle, including searches for $B \to h_c K$, $B \to Y(4260) K$, $B \to X(3872/3915)(\to \chi_{c1}\pi^0) K$ and a...
