论文摘要
本文档描述了对其检测器进行重大升级的Alice合作计划,该计划称为Alice 3,该计划是针对LHC Run 5及以后的物理数据获取的。爱丽丝3将使一项广泛的计划充分利用LHC,以研究与高能量核冲突的强烈相互作用物质的性质。提出的基于高级硅传感器的检测器布局具有出色的指向分辨率,出色的跟踪和粒子识别,并具有较大的接收和高读数功能。本文档讨论了提出的物理计划,检测器概念及其物理性能,以进行基准测量套件。
This document describes the plans of the ALICE Collaboration for a major upgrade of its detector, referred to as ALICE 3, which is proposed for physics data-taking in the LHC Run 5 and beyond. ALICE 3 will enable an extensive programme to fully exploit the LHC for the study of the properties of strongly interacting matter with high-energy nuclear collisions. The proposed detector layout, based on advanced silicon sensors, features superb pointing resolution, excellent tracking and particle identification over a large acceptance and high readout-rate capabilities. This document discusses the proposed physics programme, the detector concept, and its physics performance for a suite of benchmark measurements.
