ALICE at the dawn of LHC — •Kai Schweda — Physikalisches Institut, University of Heidelberg, Germany

A Large Ion Collider Experiment (ALICE) will study QCD-matter under extreme conditions of temperature and energy density. The current status of the experiment, its instrumentation and performance capabilities are presented. The ALICE physics potential is highlighted by discussing a few selected measurements scheduled for first proton collisions expected in the second half of 2009 and subsequent collisions of lead nuclei at LHC.
