Title: Highly excited and exotic meson spectroscopy from lattice QCD

Conference · · AIP Conf. Proc.
DOI:https://doi.org/10.1063/1.3575004· OSTI ID:1017145

I will discuss recent progress in extracting highly excited and exotic meson spectra using lattice QCD. New results in the light meson sector will be presented, where a combination of techniques have enabled us to confidently identify the spin of extracted states. Highlights include many states with exotic quantum numbers and, for the first time in a lattice QCD calculation, spin-four states. I will conclude with comments on future prospects.
