Description
Lead ions colliding in the ALICE detector, CERN graphic. ALICE (A Large Ion Collider Experiment) is a detector built around the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN (the European particle physics laboratory) near Geneva, Switzerland. The LHC, the world's largest and most powerful particle collider, began operating in 2008. For ALICE, beams of ions are accelerated to collide head-on. The collision energy creates new particles that will decay into other particles. The LHC energies have allowed study of exotic material like quark-gluon plasma, a form of quark matter.
