description We discuss the motivation to study heavy-ion collisions at LHC, and the experimental conditions under which the detectors will have to operate. A short description of the ALICE detector under construction is given. Physics performance is illustrated on two examples, which will became accessible at LHC energies, jet quenching and heavy- flavour production.
