Description
We discuss the status of both conventional and unconventional mesons between 1 and 2 GeV by using hadronic models that describe their masses, strong, and radiative decays. Various conventional quark-antiquark states are considered: some of them, such as the tensor mesons with $J^{PC}=2^{++}$ and mesons with $J^{PC}=3^{--}$, form well established nonets, while other, such as the axial-tensor mesons with $J^{PC}=2^{--}$, are poorly known and still need experimental detection. Then, we also present latest results for some non-conventional candidates, such as the case of hybrid mesons with $J^{PC}=1^{-+}$ or the tensor glueball.
