Heavy Ion Physics with the ALICE detector at the CERN LHC
by Pr. J. Schukraft / CERN - PH Department

In 2007, the Large Hadron Collider at CERN is scheduled to start operation with proton beams (cms energy 14 TeV) and heavy ion beams (Pb at 5.5 TeV/nucleon). After a brief reminder of the motivation and goals of heavy ion physics, the talk will give a summary of the heavy ion program at the LHC, in particular pointing out topics which are complementary to the current RHIC program, and describe in some detail the aims and status of the dedicated heavy ion experiment ALICE.
