  1. 102. New tests of Quarkonium Production Mechanisms using Jet Substructure
    Mr Thomas Mehen (Duke University)
    4/10/15, 2:00 PM
    invited talk
    Despite decades of study, the underlying mechanism for quarkonium production at high transverse momentum at hadron colliders is not well understood. I describe new observables that involve the measurement of quarkonia within jets that are sensitive to the underlying quarkonium production mechanisms. For example, the distribution for the fraction of energy carried by a quarkonium within a jet...

  2. 105. Making Sense of the XYZ Mesons from QCD
    Eric Braaten (Ohio State)
    4/10/15, 2:30 PM
    invited talk
    The XYZ mesons are unexpected mesons discovered in the last decade that contain a heavy quark and antiquark but have properties that suggest they also have additional constituents. Many of them are surprisingly narrow, and several are definitely tetraquark mesons. Their existence presents a serious challenge to our understanding of the spectrum of QCD. I will explain how...

  3. 16. Cusps and Molecules
    Prof. Eric Swanson (Univ Pittsburgh)
    4/10/15, 3:00 PM
    invited talk
    Possible interpretations of recently discovered exotic mesons are discussed. In particular, it is possible that the Zb and Zc states are kinematical in origin. Tests of this hypothesis are suggested. Molecular and other interpretations of the Z(4475) are also presented.
