Title: ‘Little Bang at Big Collider’: First results with heavy ions from the LHC

Abstract:
Late November last year, the Large Hadron Collider LHC at CERN had its first run with heavy ions, Pb-Pb at 2.75 TeV/nucleon; an energy more than an order of magnitude above the one available previously. The talk will summarize first results with heavy ion beams from the Alice, Atlas and CMS experiments, comparing them where appropriate with data from lower energies (RHIC and SPS), and focusing on areas where significant progress has been made or is expected with the upcoming high luminosity run in 2011.
