Assessment of Exotic Hybrid Meson Search by GlueX
March 25-26, 2021

The GlueX experiment has been operational and acquiring data since 2017. GlueX Phase I acquired over 250B triggers and 3 PB of data during 2017-18. GlueX Phase II included the DIRC upgrade for enhanced particle ID, began acquiring data in 2020, and has collected over 270B events. The primary goal of GlueX is to discover exotic hybrid mesons in the mass range 2-3 GeV and study their properties. These exotic mesons are predicted to exist by LQCD calculations and are expected to have properties related to substantial gluonic content.

Jefferson Lab management would like you to provide an assessment of the progress of the GlueX collaboration towards producing meaningful results in their search for exotic hybrid mesons. Please provide responses to the following charge questions:

1. Has the collaboration completed adequate data reconstruction with sufficient quality checks to produce event distributions that are ready for a higher level analysis relevant to the search for exotic hybrid mesons?<P> 2. Does the collaboration have a sufficient understanding of the properties of the GlueX detector?<P> 3. Does the collaboration have an adequate plan to complete the higher level analysis of the data for exotic hybrid mesons in a timely fashion? What is the realistic time scale? <P> 4. Has the collaboration efficiently organized their efforts to produce timely results? <P> 5. Can you identify opportunities for improvement in the analysis effort to facilitate the production of publishable results? <P>

In addition, please provide any other comments or advice that you think will be useful to the Lab and the GlueX collaboration.
