  Antiproton-induced reactions on nuclei at the beam energies from hundreds MeV
up to several GeV provide an excellent opportunity to study interactions of the
antiproton and secondary particles (mesons, baryons and antibaryons) with
nucleons. Antiproton projectile is unique in the sense that most of
annihilation particles are relatively slow in the target nucleus frame. Hence,
the prehadronic effects do not much influence their interactions with the
nucleons of the nuclear residue. Moreover, the particles with momenta less than
about 1 GeV/c are sensitive to the nuclear mean field potentials. This paper
discusses the microscopic transport calculations of the antiproton-nucleus
reactions and is focused on three related problems: (i) the antiproton
potential determination, (ii) possible formation of strongly bound
antiproton-nucleus systems, and (iii) strangeness production.
