✦ Synopsis


For the ALICE Collaboration

The ALICE forward muon spectrometer has been designed to measure the complete spectrum of heavy quark vector mesons via their muonic decay in pp, proton-nucleus (pA) and nucleusnucleus (AA) collisions. The design criteria are presented. The proposed technical realization of the spectrometer and its expected physics performance are summarized.
