Abstract: The spectroscopy of charmonium c ̄ c is discussed. It is a good testing tool for the theories of strong interactions, including: QCD in both the p erturbative and non-perturbative regimes, LQCD, potential models and phenomenological models. For this purpose an elaborated analysis of the charmonium spectrum is given, and attempts to interpret recent experimental data in the above D ̄ D threshold region are considered. Experiments using antiproton beams take advantage of the intensive production of particle – antiparticle pairs in antiproton – proton annihilations. Experimental data from di ff erent collaborations are analyzed with special attention given to new states with hidden charm that were discovered recently. Some of these states can be interpreted as higher-laying S , P ,and D wave charmonium states. But much more data on di ff erent decay modes are needed before fi rmer conclusions can be made. These data can be derived directly from the experiments using a high quality antiproton beam with momenta ranging from 1to15GeV/ c .
