Abstract
The Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR) in Darmstadt, Germany, provides unique possibilities for a new generation of nuclear-, hadron- and atomic physics experiments. The future PANDA experiment at FAIR will offer a broad physics programme with emphasis on different aspects of hadron physics. Understanding the strong interaction in the perturbative regime remains one of the greatest challenges in contemporary physics and hadrons provide several important keys. In these proceedings, PANDA will be presented along with some high-lights of the planned physics programme.
Highlights
The Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR) in Darmstadt, Germany, provides unique possibilities for a new generation of nuclear, hadron- and atomic physics experiments
PANDA will be a unique experiment with an excellent potential to shed light on many of the most important puzzles of contemporary physics
PANDA can access the full spectrum of single- and double-strange excited hyperons with a unique statistical precision
Summary
Strange hadrons provide a key to confinement. Charmed hadrons provide a bridge between perturbative and non-perturbative QCD. Strange and charmed hadron physics probe the strong interaction at two different energy scales and a systematic comparison could be very illuminating. The study of hadrons in the precision frontier shed light on other open questions within the Standard Model, for example: i) Are there baryon decays that violate CP conservation? Ii) What are the hadronic contributions to SM precision observables, e.g. the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon, g − 2?. The future PANDA experiment at FAIR in Darmstadt, Germany, will be a unique facility to study a wide range of aspects of the strong interaction. PANDA will be optimized for strange and charmed hadron physics. We will present the design and outline its broad physics programme
