%0 Journal Article %T The Photoproduction of Hybrid Mesons from Cebaf to HERA %A F. E. Close %A P. R. Page %J Physics %D 1994 %I arXiv %R 10.1103/PhysRevD.52.1706 %X Decay widths, branching ratios and production dynamics of some recently discovered $J^{PC} = 1^{-+}, 0^{-+}$,$1^{--}$ and $2^{-+}$ mesons are found to be in remarkable agreement with the predicted properties of hybrid mesons. We propose tests for this new dynamics, emphasise the critical role of $\pi b_1$ or $\pi h_1$ decay channels in discriminating hybrids from conventional states, and suggest that photoproduction may offer special opportunities for isolation and confirmation of hybrids. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/hep-ph/9412301v1
