Description
We revisit the present status of the lightest nonet of hybrid mesons with quantum numbers J^{PC} = 1^{-+}, that includes the resonance \Pi_1(1600) as well as the recently discovered \eta_1(1855). In the framework of an hadronic approach, predictions for not-yet measured decay rates of the two resonances listed above as well as for the not yet found members of the nonet (an isoscalar with a mass of about 1.6 GeV and a kaonic isodoublet with a mass of about 1.75 GeV) are presented. The production of the isoscalar members in the decay of the j/\psi charmonium are also discussed. Next, we present the status and progress concerning of the three lightest glueball states: scalar, tensor, and pseudoscalar. Here, new experimental and theoretical results allow to investigate various glueball candidates.
