The presentation by Andrey Sokolov at Jülich focuses on the intricacies of open charm mesons and charmonium spectroscopy. Key topics include precision measurements of mass and decay widths, the search for charmed hybrids and glueballs, and the effects of nuclear medium on meson properties. Highlighted are new observations and their implications for potential models, along with the importance of the PANDA experiment for future research. Insights into D-meson decays, reconstruction efficiencies, and the unresolved questions in this field will be emphasized, showcasing the capabilities of current detection technologies.

Simulation of the D-mesons Vertex position Invariant mass of D - meson • 1000 decays were simulated: • Here D-mesons decayed at the point (0.1,0.1,0.4)mm. • Kaon ID was required. • Three tracks were refitted to the common vertex. Andrey Sokolov
Reconstruction of D and Ds mesons * Only one kaon identification is required. Andrey Sokolov
Simulation of Ψ(4040) The reaction have been studied • Simulate 5 days data • Initial S/B ratio 10-8 • Simulated S/B ratio 3 Invariant mass difference between D*± and D0 mesons Ψ(4040) invariant mass distribution Andrey Sokolov
Summary • There are many open questions for open charm and charmonium above the DD threshold. • The PANDA experiment will be an excellent tool to answer these problems. • Good reconstruction efficiency for many types of D-mesons has been demonstrated. • Very high background suppression is achieved.
