ALICE in Wonderland: first results from the ALICE experiment at the LHC — •Peter Braun-Munzinger — EMMI, GSI

Since November 2009 the ALICE experiment at the CERN LHC has taken data, first with proton-proton collisions at 0.9 and 7 TeV center-of-mass energy, then in November 2010 with Pb--Pb collisions at 574 TeV. More than 700 million events were recorded with pp collisions, more than 20 million events with Pb--Pb collisions. We will briefly describe the performance of the detector and report on new physics results with emphasis on new insights into the physics of the quark-gluon plasma at LHC energy.
