Summary & prospects First picture of highly excited spectrum from lattice QCD Broadly consistent with non-relativistic quark model Extra bits interpreted as hybrid states with color octet (magnetic) structure Electric field structure higher in energy Add multi-particle ops - spectrum becomes denser Observe significant overlap of hybrid stucture with ground level Could have other consequences Path forward: resonance determination! Obviously, lighter pion masses needed Challenges: Must develop reliable 3-body formalism (hard enough in infinite volume) Large number of open channels in physical pion mass limit it s the real world! Can QCD allow simplifications? 40
