Description
ALICE is a multipurpose detector for high-energy nucleus-nucleus physics at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC). In November 2010, ALICE took its first Pb-Pb data at the centre-of-mass energy of 2.76TeV per nucleon pair; reference data in proton-proton collisions at the same energy and at 7TeV were collected in 2010 and 2011. A second, higher statistics Pb-Pb run took place in fall 2011. An overview of the main physics results is presented.
