Physics Performance Studies for PANDA at FAIR — •Jan Zhong — Experimentalphysik I, Ruhr-Universität Bochum, 44780 Bochum

With the PANDA experiment at FAIR, it will be possible to study antiproton-proton and antiproton-nucleus collisions up to √s = 5.5 GeV. PANDA will cover a broad physics program including hadron spectroscopy, search for gluonic excitations, charmed hadrons in matter, investigation of the structure of the nucleon, and hypernuclear spectroscopy. For a large number of benchmark channels, extensive Monte Carlo simulations have been done in order to determine the acceptance, the reconstruction efficiencies, and background rejection capabilities of the detector. The results of these simulations studies will be presented. Supported by bmb+f and the European Union.
