Small-x Physics in eA at the LHeC: Understanding the Initial State of URHIC
Abstract
I discuss the project of an electron-proton/ion collider at CERN using the LHC beams, the Large Hadron Electron Collider. After a brief introduction, I summarise the possibilities for electron-nucleus collisions. I also indicate the status of the project and future steps to be taken.
