ANDA is a dedicated antiproton experiment at the future FAIR facility at GSI benefiting from antiproton beams with unprecedented intensity and quality. High-precision spectroscopy in the charm quark sector is part of the core physics program. The micro-vertex-detector (MVD) is the innermost part of the tracking system. It plays a key role for the vertex reconstruction and momentum resolution of charged particles.This article contains a short description of the experiment and the MVD design. Detector simulations for the MVD are based on a detailed model allowing a realistic description. Presented results of physics simulations refer to selected reaction channels with charged particles in the final state. Besides the reconstruction of D-mesons a study of the X(3872) is included.
