The ALICE Transition Radiation Detector (TRD) enhances the detection sensitivity of heavyflavour production of the ALICE experiment at the LHC by providing electron identification above p T > 1 GeV/c and fast trigger capabilities above p T > 3 GeV/c. The combined particle identification from the Inn

The ALICE experiment is the LHC detector mainly dedicated to the study of the Quark Gluon Plasma (QGP) in Pb-Pb collisions. The detector has started the data taking less than one year ago, delivering immediately relevant results. An overview of the first physics results obtained in the first six mon
ALICE, the dedicated heavy ion experiment at the LHC, has also an important physics program with protonproton collisions. The main purpose of the experiment is to investigate the properties of strongly interacting matter at extreme energy density where the formation of the Quark Gluon Plasma is expe
