description The ALICE Collaboration has submitted to the LHCC a Letter of Intent for a major upgrade of its detector referred to as ALICE 3, which is proposed for physics data-taking in Run 5 and beyond. ALICE 3 will enable an extensive programme to fully exploit the LHC for the study of the properties of the quark-gluon plasma. This programme relies on novel and unique compact detector with high readout rate capabilities, superb pointing resolution and excellent tracking and particle identification over a large acceptance. The proposed detector also opens up important new physics opportunities in other areas.

ALICE 3 will enable an extensive programme to fully exploit the LHC for the study of the properties of strongly interacting matter with high-energy nuclear collisions. The proposed detector layout, based on advanced silicon sensors, features superb pointing resolution, excellent tracking and particle identification over a large acceptance and high readout-rate capabilities. This document discusses the proposed physics programme, the detector concept, and its physics performance for a suite of benchmark measurements.arXiv:2211.02491CERN-LHCC-2022-009LHCC-I-038LHCC-I-038oai:cds.cern.ch:28035632022-03-10
