Search for smoking gun signature of exotic J PC hybrid mesons; these do not mix with qq states Tools for the GlueX Project: –Accelerator: 12 GeV electrons, 9 GeV linearly polarized photons with high flux –Detector: hermiticity, resolution, charged and neutrals, R&D –PWA Analysis: each reaction has multi-particle final states –Computing power: 1 Pb/year data collection, data grids, distributed computing, web services… -

white QCD is the theory of quarks and gluons 3 Colors 3 Anti-colors 8 Gluons, each with a color and an anti-color charge. (colorless objects) confinement

Jets at High Energy Direct evidence for gluons come from high energy jets. But this doesn’t tell us anything about the “static” properties of glue. We learn something about  s. 2-Jet 3-Jet gluon bremsstrahlung

Deep Inelastic Scattering As the nucleon is probed to smaller and smaller x, the gluons become more and more important. Much of the nucleon momentum and most of its spin is carried by gluons! Glue is important to hadronic structure. x = q 2 /2M, 0<x<1

Strong QCD: See and systems. white Nominally, glue is not needed to describe hadrons. Allowed systems:,, GlueballsHybridsMolecules Gluonic Excitations u d s c b t Six Flavors of quarks GlueX Focus: “light-quark mesons”

Flux Tubes Color Field: Gluons possess color charge: they couple to each other! DipoleFlux Tube 1 electric charge  carries no charge 3 Color charges g carry charge Notion of flux tubes comes about from model-independent general considerations: observed linear dependence of m 2 on J. Idea originated with Nambu in the ‘70s.

Lattice QCD Flux tubes realized linear potential r/fm V o ( r) [GeV] From G. Bali Lattice “measurement” of quenched static potential

“Pluck” the Flux Tube Normal meson: flux tube in ground state Hybrid meson: flux tube in excited state There are two degenerate first-excited transverse modes with J=1 – clockwise and counter-clockwise – and their linear combinations lead to J PC = 1 – + or J PC =1 + – for the excited flux-tube How do we look for gluonic degrees of freedom in spectroscopy?

Decay Angular Distributions J PC =2 ++ J PC =3 -- C.M.S. J PC =1 -- Place PWA tools on firm footing, years before experiment effects of polarized and unpolarized beam detector acceptance (hermetic) Leakage of non-exotics into exotic signal GlueX uses two parallel PWA codes for cross-checking!

Finding the Exotic Wave PC The Jexotic was in the mix with other waves at the level of 2.5% The generated mass and width are compared with those from PWA fits: Mass Input: 1600 MeV Width Input: 170 MeV Output: /- 3 MeV Output: 173 +/- 11 MeV Statistics correspond to a few days of running Double-blind MC exercise  p       n J PC =1 -+  1

What is Needed for the GlueX Experiment?  PWA requires that the entire event be kinematically identified - all particles detected, measured and identified. It is also important that there be sensitivity to a wide variety of decay channels to test theoretical predictions for decay modes. The detector should be hermetic for neutral and charged particles, with excellent resolution and particle identification capability. The way to achieve this is with a solenoidal-based detector. Hermetic Detector:  Linear Polarization is required by the PWA  At least 12 GeV electrons  Small spot size and superior emittance  CW beam minimizes detector deadtime, permitting much higher rates Linearly Polarized, CW Photon Beam:

Why a 12 GeV Electron Beam? The mass reach of GlueX is up to about 2.5 GeV/c 2 so the photon energy must at least be 5.8 GeV. Energy must be higher than this so that: 1.Mesons have enough boost so decay products are detected and measured with sufficient accuracy. 2.Line shape distortion for higher mass mesons is minimized. 3.Meson and baryon resonance regions are kinematically distinguishable. 4.Linear polarization is optimal. But the photon energy should be low enough so that: 1.An all-solenoidal geometry (ideal for hermeticity) can still measure decay products with sufficient accuracy. 2.Background processes are minimized. 9 GeV photons ideal

Linear Polarization Linear polarization is: Essential to isolate the production mechanism (M) if X is known A J PC filter if M is known (via a kinematic cut) Degree of polarization is directly related to required statistics Linear polarization separates natural and unnatural parity States of linear polarization are eigenstates of parity. States of circular polarization are not. M

Computational Challenge GlueX will collect data at 100 MB/sec or 1 Petabyte/year - comparable to LHC-type experiments. GlueX will be able to make use of much of the infrastructure developed for the LHC including the multi-tier computer architecture and the seamless virtual data architecture of the Grid. To get the physics out of the data, GlueX relies entirely on an amplitude-based analysis - PWA – a challenge at the level necessary for GlueX. For example, visualization tools need to be designed and developed. Methods for fitting large data sets in parallel on processor farms need to be developed. Close collaboration with computer scientists has started and the collaboration is gaining experience with processor farms.

Conclusions An outstanding and fundamental question is the nature of confinement of quarks and gluons in QCD. Lattice QCD and phenomenology strongly indicate that the gluonic field between quarks forms flux-tubes and that these are responsible for confinement. The excitation of the gluonic field leads to an entirely new spectrum of mesons and their properties are predicted by lattice QCD. But data are needed to validate these predictions. Only now are the tools in place to carry out the definitive experiment and JLab – with the energy upgrade – is unique for this search. If exotic hybrids are there, we will find them! In Regina, we will continue the R&D on MC, HPMTs and Pb/SciFi We are eagerly awaiting CD-0 from the DOE. The right people are in place - ready to make this happen

What Electron Beam Characteristics Are Required? Coherent bremsstrahlung will be used to produce photons with linear polarization so the electron energy must be high enough to allow for a sufficiently high degree of polarization - which drops as the energy of the photons approaches the electron energy. At least 12 GeV electrons In order to reduce incoherent bremsstrahlung background collimation will be employed using 20 µm thick diamond wafers as radiators. Small spot size and superior emittance The detector must operate with minimum dead time Duty factor approaching 1 (CW Beam)

Photon Beam Energy Figure of Merit Electron energy Photon energy Given that 9 GeV photons are ideal - 12 GeV electron energy suffices; lower than this seriously degrades polarization and tagged hadronic rate.
