Scientific paper

In this talk an overview of the ALICE transition radiation detector (TRD) is presented. In its final form the detector will consist of 540 individual detector modules with nearly 1.2 million readout channels. The TRD is part of the central barrel of ALICE and provides efficient electron identification for momenta above 1 GeV/c. In addition, it provides a fast trigger for charged particles with large transverse momentum. It is designed to operate in the very high multiplicity environment expected for heavy ion collisions at LHC.
