List of Participants
The aim of the workshop is to bring together the nuclear and particle 
physics communities to discuss experimental searches for exotic hadronic 
resonances (tetra, penta, hexaquarks etc); the latest data analysis 
methods used; the theoretical interpretation of these states and the 
potential for future searches at current experimental facilities (CERN, 
JLab, Mainz). It is hoped that this workshop will facilitate information 
exchange between the different communities involved and lead to new 
search strategies for exotic states to be developed.
The search for, and study of, exotic hadrons has become a hot topic over 
recent years as a wealth of new data has arrived from current particle 
and nuclear physics experiments. Many new states have been observed and 
their properties measured, with different degrees of precision. Often 
similar states and search methods are discussed separately in the 
particle and nuclear physics communities, with little interaction 
between them. The workshop aims to improve communication between 
the groups involved in order to facilitate the development of new 
analysis methods and search strategies as we attempt to understand the 
spectrum of exotic hadrons.
