Abstract

The P¯ANDA collaboration (anti-Proton ANnihilations at DArmstadt) is a next generation hadron physics experiment to be operated at the future Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR) at Darmstadt, Germany. It will use intensive cooled antiproton beams with a momentum between 1.5 GeV/c and 15 GeV/c. The P¯ANDA detector is a state-of-the-art internal target detector allowing the detection and identification of neutral and charged particles almost in the whole solid angle.One of the major goal of the experiment is the comprehensive study of charmonium and candidates to the hybrids, molecules and other exotics. Charmonium states with different quantum numbers can be reached via the decay of these resonances. The P¯ANDA will scan the parameters of the resonances in formation mode with the use of the excellent momentum resolution Δp/p=104 – 105 of the HESR beam. The precision measurements of light mesons mass and width will be fulfilled as well as glueball search.Study of double hyperon production including their spin properties is another important item of the P¯ANDA experiment.
