The study of baryon excitation spectra provides insight into the inner structure of baryons. So far, most of the world-wide efforts have been directed towards and
spectroscopy. Nevertheless, the study of the double and triple strange baryon spectrum provides independent information to the
and
spectra. The future antiproton experiment
ANDA will provide direct access to final states containing a
pair, for which production cross sections up to
are expected in
p reactions. With a luminosity of
cm
s
in the first phase of the experiment, the expected cross sections correspond to a production rate of
. With a nearly
detector acceptance,
ANDA will thus be a hyperon factory. In this study, reactions of the type
p
as well as
p
with various decay modes are investigated. For the exclusive reconstruction of the signal events a full decay tree fit is used, resulting in reconstruction efficiencies between 3 and 5%. This allows high statistics data to be collected within a few weeks of data taking.
