abstract = {The PANDA experiment at the international accelerator
Facility for Antiproton andIon Research in Europe (FAIR)
near GSI, Darmstadt, Germany will address
fundamentalquestions of hadron physics. Excellent Particle
Identification (PID) over a largerange of solid angles and
particle momenta will be essential to meet the objectivesof
the rich physics program. Charged PID for the barrel region
of the PANDA targetspectrometer will be provided by a DIRC
(Detection of Internally Reflected Cherenkov light)
detector.The PANDA Barrel DIRC is designed to cover the
polar angle range of 22-140 degreesand separate charged
pions from kaons for momenta between 0.5 GeV/c and 3.5
GeV/cwith a separation power of at least 3 standard
deviations. The design is based onthe successful BABAR DIRC
and the SuperB FDIRC $R\&D$ with several
importantimprovements to optimize the performance for PANDA,
such as a focusing lens system,fast timing, a compact fused
silica prism as expansion region, and lifetime-enhanced
Microchannel-Plate PMTs for photon detection.Detailed
Monte-Carlo simulations were performed and two
reconstruction methodwere developed to study the performance
of the design.We will discuss the baseline design of the
PANDA Barrel DIRC, based on narrow barsmade of synthetic
fused silica and a complex multi-layer spherical lens system
andpresent the result of tests of a large system prototype
with a mixed hadron beam at CERN.},
