Physics opportunities for hadron physics at FAIR — •Christoph Hanhart — IAS-4, Forschungszentrum Jülich, 52428 Jülich

In this talk I will discuss the physics program planned for proton and pion induced reactions at FAIR. In particular I will highlight two cases: The perspectives to measure hyperon-nucleon and hyperon-hyperon scattering lengths and to study the hidden charm pentaquarks, so far seen only at LHCb.

Keywords: hadron physics; spectroscopy; hyperon-nucleon and hyperon-hyperon interactions; final state interactions; exotic hadrons
