Light hadron spectroscopy at BESIII

Light hadron spectroscopy is one of the most important physics goals of high statistics of charmonium decays collected at BESIII which provide an excellent place for hunting gluonic excitations and studying strangeonium. In this proceeding, we will introduce two analyses for gluonic states study on η(1405)/η(1475) puzzle, X(1835) and exotic states and two analyses for strangeonium(like) states study on Y(2175) and Zs state.

Light Hadron Spectroscopy at BESIII

BESIII has collected [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text], which are the world’s largest data samples of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] from [Formula: see text] collision. Radiative decays of charmonium provide a gluon-rich environment and are therefore regarded as one of the most promising hunting grounds for gluonic excitations. Significant progresses in the light-quark sector have been made with the unprecedented high statistics data sets. Several recent results on light hadron spectroscopy and light hadron decays will be reported, including: 1, the observation of the anomalous line shape of [Formula: see text] near [Formula: see text] mass threshold and related studies; 2, studies of glueballs in [Formula: see text] radiative decays; 3, search for [Formula: see text] exotic in [Formula: see text].

Colour fields of the quark-antiquark excited flux tube

We present colour field density profiles for some of the first SU(3) gluonic excitations of the flux tube in the presence of a static quark-antiquark pair. The results are obtained from a large set of gluonic operators.

HADRON PHYSICS EXPERIMENTS IN ANTIPROTON–PROTON REACTIONS WITH THE PLANNED PANDA DETECTOR

Fundamental questions concerning the strong interaction are addressed by the PANDA experiment at the future FAIR facility at GSI-Darmstadt. PANDA will be a general purpose detector of modular design optimized to measure the interaction of an antiproton beam with proton and heavy nuclear targets. The physics program at PANDA covers a wide range of topics including gluonic excitations, spectroscopy of strange and charm mesons, Drell-Yan and CP violating processes. This contribution focuses on the part of the physics program dealing with antiproton - proton annihilation.
