ALICE: Physics Performance Report, Volume I [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Physics G: Nuclear and Particle Physics, 2004
ALICE is a general-purpose heavy-ion experiment designed to study the physics of strongly interacting matter and the quark-gluon plasma in nucleus-nucleus collisions at the LHC. It currently involves more than 900 physicists and senior engineers, from both the nuclear and high-energy physics sectors, from over 90 institutions in about 30 countries. The
