This three-year RUI grant supports the research of a faculty member, and two undergraduate students/graduate student (summer only) to participate in research at the Brookhaven National Laboratory AGS using the Multi-Particle Spectrometer (MPS). The experiment will search for OexoticO states with quantum numbers not allowed in a simple quark/anti-quark mesonic model. Examples of such states are glueballs or hybrid states of a glueball with a quark/anti- quark pair. There is an increasing interest within the nuclear physics community in meson and baryon spectroscopy, and this research lies at the interface between the fields of particle and nuclear physics.

这个为期三年的RUI赠款支持一名教师的研究，和两名本科生/研究生（仅夏季）参加布鲁克海文国家实验室AGS使用多粒子光谱仪（MPS）的研究。 该实验将搜索在简单的夸克/反夸克介子模型中不允许量子数的OexoticO态。 这种状态的例子是胶球或胶球与夸克/反夸克对的混合态。 核子物理学界对介子和重子光谱学的兴趣日益增加，而这项研究处于粒子物理和核子物理领域之间的界面。
