Non-quark model states States with excited gluon Hybrid mesons ( meson + excited glue) Hybrid baryons ( baryon + excited glue) Glue balls (consitutent glue) Multi-quark states Tetraquark, Pentaquark and higher number of quark states So far there is no conclusive experimental evidence of such a state These states are not well understood Quark model fails to explain these states Lack of understanding makes experimental identification difficult. Lattice QCD calculations can provide crucial information of such a state
Exotic Hadrons • Hadrons whose quantum numbers require a valence quark content beyond qqq or q¯q are termed “exotics”. • Hadrons whose spin, parity and charge conjugation are forbidden in the non-relativistic quark model are also often termed “exotics”. • Experimental status : Aufbau principleof QCD differs dramatically from that of atoms and nuclei: to make more atoms add electrons, to make more nuclei, add neutrons and protons. …..R.L. Jaffe

Status of exotic and hybrids • There is suggestive, though not conclusive, evidence of the existence of exotics and hybrid both in light and charm quark sectors. • Lattice calculations find evidence of existence of exotics and hybrid at non-realistic quark masses. More detail calculations with controlled systematic and proper understanding of decay channels are necessary.
Glueball A glueball is a purely gluonic bound state. In the theory of QCD glueball self coupling admits the existence of such a state. Problems in glueball calculations : ٭Glueballs are heavy – correlation functions die rapidly at large time separations. ٭Glueball operators have large vacuum fluctuations ٭Signal to noise ratio is very bad
Glueball On Lattice, continuum rotational symmetry becomes discrete cubic symmetry with representationA1, A2 , E, T1 ,T2etc.of different quantum numbers. Typical gluon operators : Moringstar and Peardon …. hep-lat/9901004 Fuzzed operator : Try to make the overlap of the ground state of the operator to the glueball as large as possible by killing excited state contributions.
Generalized Wilson loops Gluonic terms required for glueballs and hybrids can be extracted from generalized Wilson loops

Tetraquark states • What is a tetraquark state? Large 4 quark component in Fock space in the same way mesons have large 2 quark and baryons have large 3 quark components. • Why a tetraquark state is relevant? • Old reason – There is a mess in light quark scalar sector. Difficult to explain observe spectrum by two quark states. • New reason – Some of the newly observed charmonia states may require explanation through tetraquark states.
