The CERN Large Hadron Collider will provide collisions of Pb nuclei at 5.5 TeV per nucleon. The CMS heavy ion group has developed a plethora of physics analyses addressing many important aspects of heavy-ion physics in preparation for a competitive and successful program.4 pages, 6 figures, proceedings to the Rencontres de Moriond QCD and High Energy Interactions, March 8-15, 2008, La Thuile, ItalyNuclear Experimenttext
