The flux tube model: Hadron spectroscopy with strings attached

Conference ·
OSTI ID:802894
After recalling why most strong interaction phenomena cannot be studied with quark-gluon perturbation theory, I suggest that a phenomenological form of the old dual string theory may be a good model for the nonperturbative aspects of QCD. I begin by describing some recent progress within this framework in understanding the status of the quark model within QCD. The resulting picture of the ordinary hadrons, hybrids, and glueballs provides a simple framework for studying these elements of hadron spectroscopy.
