Publication abstract: 

The PANDA experiment will be one of the pillars of the new Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR), which is currently under construction in Darmstadt, Germany. PANDA will be a fixed-target experiment which will allow the study of non-perturbative phenomena of the strong interaction. These will be probed in antiproton-proton collisions in the momentum range of 1.5 - 15 GeV/c. Within the PANDA physics program, strangeness production will be addressed through pbar p - > Ybar Y processes. Measurements of the pbar p-> Sigmabar Lambda channel for its comparison with the existing data of the Lambdabar Lambda channel are highly encouraged to study the role of isospin symmetry in hadron production dynamics. This work consists on a simulation study focusing on the feasibility of measuring the pbar p -> Sigmabar Lambda channel at PANDA.
