Light qq Resonances: Spectrum and Decays
Abstract
I give a brief introduction to light qq resonances. The properties of qq states are discussed in the context of the constituent quark model, including predictions for mass and partial decay widths. Problems and puzzles in the meson spectrum are pointed out with an emphasis on how an 8+ GeV photon beam can address these. I also point out some areas where I believe theoretical study would be useful.
