History of GlueX
The first meeting of what became the GlueX Collaboration occurred in July1997 at Indiana University. The meetings that followed looked at how onecould explore the spectrum of hybrid mesons using photon beams.
In 1999, what is now the GlueX collaboration was formed. The first PACpresentation was made and the first review of the physics program occurred.
The experiment was listed as a key part of the 12 GeV upgrade in the 2002NSAC Long range Plan.
Department of Energy Milestones for the 12 GeV Upgrade: April 2004 CD0, February 2006 CD1, November 2007 CD2 Late 2008 anticpated CD3 (start of construction) 2015 anticipatre CD4 (start of physics)

The GlueX experiment has been designed to carry out an amplitude analysis of many different final states involving charged particles andphotons to study the reaction:
° p ! (n,p) X
where X ultimately decays to final states with 3-6 pseudoscalar mesons.
Tagged photons up to nearly 12 GeV.High photon flux.Linear polarization using coherent bremsstrahlung.Hermetic Detector for photons and charged particles.Some PID in initial stages, plans to significantly improve this.Very large data sets with relatively minimal trigger bias.
The Physics of GlueX
Search for exotic hybrid mesons to discover and map out their spectrum and properties.

Flux Tubes Realized
Confinement arises from flux tubes and their excitation leads to a new spectrum of mesons
Color Field: Because of self interaction, confining flux tubes form between static color charges

What other physics can be done?
During this workshop, we will see a number of discussions of other physics that can be carried out by the GlueX experiment.
Some of these can be carried out simply using the GlueX data.
Some will require slightly modified running of the experiment (target, photon beam energy ….)
Some will require the addition of more particle identification capability.
The purpose of this workshop is to get people thinking about what can be done in the GlueX experiment, and attract people to the experiment that are interested in doing this physics.
