The imageANDA Experiment at FAIR Original Research Article

At Darmstadt, in Germany, is under construction FAIR a new international Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research. This will provide scientists in the world with outstanding beams and experimental conditions for studying matter at the level of atoms, nuclei, and other sub-nuclear constituents. An antiproton beam with intensity up to View the MathML source and high momentum resolution will be available at the High Energy Storage Ring (HESR) where the View the MathML sourceANDA detector will be installed. View the MathML sourceANDA will carry out a wide scientific program including meson spectroscopy from light to charm quark sector, baryon/antibaryon production, charm in nuclei, and strangeness physics with particular attention to the systems with strangeness S=−2. In this paper will be illustrated the details of the View the MathML sourceANDA scientific program related to strangeness physics, after a brief introduction about the FAIR facility.
