Publication abstract:

The new Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR) is under construction at GSI in Darmstadt (Germany), where the PANDA experiment represents the central part of the hadron physics programme. The multi-purpose PANDA detector in combination with an intense and high quality anti-proton beam for creating a gluon-rich environment in anti-proton-proton collisions allows for coverage of a broad range of different aspects of QCD. Apart from the facility and the apparatus, an overview of the rich PANDA physics programme will be given, with focus on the unique possibilities for performing studies in the field of exotic hadrons.
