Title	A fixed-target program at the LHC for heavy-ion, hadron, spin and astroparticle physics: recent progress and current status
Abstract	Thanks to its multi-TeV LHC proton and lead beams, the LHC complex allows one to perform the most energetic fixed-target experiments ever and to study with high precision pp and pA collisions at \sqrt(sNN) = 115 GeV and Pbp and PbA collisions at \sqrt(sNN) = 72 GeV. Such an experiment will facilitate a broad physics program, covering the large-x frontier for particle and astroparticle physics, spin and heavy-ion physics. We will present performance studies for measurements of the production of Drell-Yan pairs, quarkonia, open heavy-flavor mesons as well as light-flavor hadrons in pp, pA and PbA collisions using the LHCb and ALICE detectors in a fixed-target mode. Recent progress on the implementation of the fixed target program at the LHC and its perspectives will be also discussed.
