Novel Hadrons

Speaker's Bio:
Over the past three years, sightings of many new states and remarkably incisive explorations of a broad range of phenomena have renewed interest in hadronic physics and spurred many lively conversations between theory and experiment. I report on the current state of hadronic physics and spectroscopy, with particular emphasis on the new states associated with the charmonium spectrum. I also reflect briefly on the goals of hadronic physics and look toward its future.
