Description
Summary:The PANDA experiment at the new FAIR facility has a dedicated program of utilizing antiprotons for hadron physics. It belongs to the group of core experiments, which will be realized at the first stages of the facility. PANDA will be a universal detector to study the strong interaction by utilizing the annihilation process of antiprotons with protons and nuclear matter. The past few years have been used by the collaboration to do extensive detector R&D and to sharpen the physics case. This paper gives an introduction into the hadron physics with antiprotons as it is planned with PANDA.
