LHC heavy-ion program: a CMS perspective

The LHC will collide protons at surds = 14 TeV and lead ions at surdS /sub NN/ = 5.5 TeV. These energies are much higher than with the Fermilab Tevatron or RHIC. Huge experiments are being assembled at four interaction points along the 27 km LHC ring. Although it is a large step into the unknown, th...

description The LHC will collide protons at surds = 14 TeV and lead ions at surdS /sub NN/ = 5.5 TeV. These energies are much higher than with the Fermilab Tevatron or RHIC. Huge experiments are being assembled at four interaction points along the 27 km LHC ring. Although it is a large step into the unknown, there have been extensive calculations predicting data rates for a wide variety of processes to be observed by these experiments. Here we consider primarily the results of lead collisions as will be observed by the CMS experiment.
