The ALICE Collaboration is building a dedicated heavy-ion detector to exploit the
unique physics potential of nucleus-nucleus interactions at LHC energies.
Our aim is to study the physics of strongly interacting matter at extreme energy densities,
where the formation of a new phase of matter, the quark-gluon plasma, is expected.
The existence of such a phase and its properties are key issues in QCD for the
understanding of confinement and of chiral-symmetry restoration. For this purpose,
we intend to carry out a comprehensive study of the hadrons, electrons,
muons and photons produced in the collision of heavy nuclei.
Alice will also study proton-proton collisions both as a comparison with lead-lead
collisions and in physics areas where Alice is competitive with other LHC experiments
