Recent results from the E852 data analysis

• Motivation, E852 vs GlueX

• PWA basics

• 00 production

• and ’ spectra : have we seen exotics yet ?

• Computational challenge

• Outlook

‘Simplest’ QCD states

Lab for fundamental symmetry tests

Heavy QQ are non-relativistic

Light meson are chiral eigenstates

Beyond the quark model : glueballs, exotics

Bridge between QCD and the S-matrix theory

Why mesons ?

Why Hall D can resolve issues in meson spectrum

• Several orders of magnitude increase in statistics

• “Unlimited” computational resources

• New developments in theory, LGT, EFT

• High energy, intensity, polarized photon beams
