Abstract

The Large Hadron Collider at CERN will provide Pb-Pb collisions at energies up to sNN\sqrt{s_{NN}} = 5.5 TeV. We speculate on global observables, i.e. the charged particle density at mid-rapidity, chemical freeze-out conditions and collective parameters for transverse radial an elliptic flow. Finally, we present an idea how to address the important issue of thermalization by measuring the correlated production of heavy-quark hadrons.
