Abstract

The phenomenon of confinement in QCD remains a fundamental, unanswered question, and so does the significance of hybrid mesons in understanding QCD in the confinement region. The GlueX experiment will search for all hybrid exotic and non-exotic mesons in the mass range up to 3.0 GeV/c². This contribution deals exclusively with the search for exotic hybrid mesons.
