The forward GEM tracker of the P̅ANDA detector at future FAIR facility will track particles produced in antiproton-proton annihilations and emitted polar angle range 5∘ –22∘. Position resolution level 100 μ m good time are critical to work under luminosities up 2×1032 c −2 s −1. simulations performed with Garfield program compared several layouts determined optimal granularity readout electronics. for two possible gas mixtures was also estimated.
