  5. antiProtonANnihilation atDArmstadt Experiment performed at FAIR facility, near GSI, in Darmstadt, Germany A very high intensity p beam with momentum from 1.5 GeV/c up to15 GeV/c on a proton fixed target (or nuclear target), average interaction rate 20 MHz, s from 2.25 up to 5.46 GeV It will continue and extend the successful physics program performed in the past at facilities like LEAR at CERN and the antiproton accumulator ring at FNAL

  6. Physics Program of PANDA • Physics program is aimed at finding new forms of matter in the interactions of antimatter with matter. Some specific parts of the program are as follows:- search for exotic particles such as glueballs and hybrids; - spectroscopy of charmonium states mostly above the threshold for pair D-anti-D-mesons, however below the threshold as well (study h_c width etc.); - study hyper-nuclei (including - double) and charm-nuclei, when the strange (one or two) or charmed particle "implanted" into the nuclei instead of the usual nucleon; • study electromagnetic form factors of proton; • etc.

  7. Benefit of antiproton annihilation In electron-positron annihilations direct particle formation is possible only for the states with the quantum numbers J(PC) = 1 (--)

  27. Conclusions • PANDA experiment will have a great potential for discovery in addition to the LHC at a relatively high-energy antiprotons and, at the same time, due to the energy scan mode will determine the width of the resonances with an accuracy of a linear collider. • Studies will be performed at the antiproton beam storage ring with a stochastic and electron cooling (HESR) with energy up to 15 GeV. Expected to record in the world of pure intensity antiproton beam that provides up to 2х107 interactions on the target per second. • In addition to high-intensity, beam of antiprotons would be unprecedented in the degree of monochromatic, the expected level of p/p down to 10-5, which will allow the study of strong interactions with high precision. • PANDA detector is created using the most modern technology and provides a registration and identification of neutral and charged particles to nearly the full solid angle and energy range up to 15 GeV. • A commissioning of PANDA and the first data taking is planned for 2018.
