Abstract
The future PANDA experiment is dedicated to hadron physics. In particular a new idea to produce doubly strange systems from Ξ− hyperons obtained from antiprotons is proposed. The developments of the hypernuclear as well as of the exotic hyperatom physics requires the production of statistically significant amounts of doubly strange Ξ− hyperons. The FAIR project will supply intense beam of antiprotons from the HESR ring. A target should be put inside the beam pipe and its features will play a crucial role in producing high rates of double hypernuclei. A new set-up with a novel idea for a hyperon production target, together with the results of some preliminary tests, will be described in this paper.
