ALICE Status and Potential

After more than 15 years of design, construction, and installation, ALICE, the experiment dedicated to heavy ion physics at the LHC, was commissioned during the first part of 2008 and ready for the LHC start-up in September 2009. This contribution describes the status and readiness of the various su...

description After more than 15 years of design, construction, and installation, ALICE, the experiment dedicated to heavy ion physics at the LHC, was commissioned during the first part of 2008 and ready for the LHC start-up in September 2009. This contribution describes the status and readiness of the various subsystems of ALICE; first results from cosmics and LHC injection tests on detector performance, calibration, alignment, and prospects for first physics are summarized elsewhere in these proceedings.
