Abstract:
The theoretical description of the strong interaction between quarks
and gluons that form hadrons is provided by quantum chromodynamics. However,
the impact of gluonic excitations on the characteristics of hadrons and their role in
hadronic structure is yet to be determined. Recent discoveries of several possibly
exotic hadrons highlight the significance of spectroscopic measurements in comprehending
the nature of the strong interaction. These proceedings focus on the
status of the hunt for exotic contributions in photoproduction data obtained with
the GlueX experiment at Jefferson Lab in .(
)p systems. Specifically, we discuss the
investigation of the a2(1320) meson production in these key channels, which is an
initial step towards identifying exotic quantum-number states, where gluonic excitations
contribute to the external properties, called hybrid states. Furthermore, the
discussion will cover the application of an amplitude analysis that exploits the polarization
of the photon beam available to the GlueX experiment and its implications
for identifying the lightest hybrid meson.References(14)
