Publication abstract: 

The PANDA (anti-Proton ANnihiliation at DArmstadt) experiment will be a multi- purpose apparatus at the future Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR) at Darmstadt. Anti-proton induced reactions with 1.5 to 15 GeV/c beam momentum at high luminosities of up to 2·1032/(s·cm2) will be investigated. Exclusive detection of whole events with almost 4π acceptance and high precision are needed for the broad physics program. The focus lies on studying the strong interaction in the charm region, by charmonium, open-charm and baryon spectroscopy, and includes the search for glueballs, hybrids and other exotics, hypernuclear physics, nucleon structure studies as well as in-medium modifications of hadrons.
