Technical Design Report for the PANDA Solenoid and Dipole Spectrometer Magnets
This document is the Technical Design Report covering the two large
spectrometer magnets of the PANDA detector set-up. It shows the conceptual
design of the magnets and their anticipated performance. It precedes the tender
and procurement of the magnets and, hence, is subject to possible modifications
arising during this process.Comment: 10 pages, 14MB, accepted by FAIR STI in May 2009, editors: Inti

Physics Performance Report for PANDA: Strong Interaction Studies with Antiprotons
To study fundamental questions of hadron and nuclear physics in interactions
of antiprotons with nucleons and nuclei, the universal PANDA detector will be
built. Gluonic excitations, the physics of strange and charm quarks and nucleon
structure studies will be performed with unprecedented accuracy thereby
allowing high-precision tests of the strong interaction. The proposed PANDA
detector is a state-of-the art internal target detector at the HESR at FAIR
allowing the detection and identification of neutral and charged particles
generated within the relevant angular and energy range. This report presents a
summary of the physics accessible at PANDA and what performance can be
expected.Comment: 216 page
Technical Design Report for the: PANDA Micro Vertex Detector
This document illustrates the technical layout and the expected performance
of the Micro Vertex Detector (MVD) of the PANDA experiment. The MVD will detect
charged particles as close as possible to the interaction zone. Design criteria
and the optimisation process as well as the technical solutions chosen are
discussed and the results of this process are subjected to extensive Monte
Carlo physics studies. The route towards realisation of the detector is
outlined.Comment: 189 pages, 225 figures, 41 table
Technical Design Report for the: PANDA Straw Tube Tracker
This document describes the technical layout and the expected performance of the Straw Tube Tracker (STT), the main tracking detector of the PANDA target spectrometer. The STT encloses a Micro-Vertex-Detector (MVD) for the inner tracking and is followed in beam direction by a set of GEM-stations. The tasks of the STT are the measurement of the particle momentum from the reconstructed trajectory and the measurement of the specific energy-loss for a particle identification. Dedicated simulations with full analysis studies of certain proton-antiproton reactions, identified as being benchmark tests for the whole \Panda scientific program, have been performed to test the STT layout and performance. The results are presented, and the time lines to construct the STT are described

Technical Design Report for PANDA Electromagnetic Calorimeter (EMC)
This document presents the technical layout and the envisaged performance of the Electromagnetic Calorimeter (EMC) for the PANDA target spectrometer. The EMC has been designed to meet the physics goals of the PANDA experiment, which is being developed for the Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR) at Darmstadt, Germany. The performance figures are based on extensive prototype tests and radiation hardness studies. The document shows that the EMC is ready for construction up to the front-end electronics interface
