CASTOR:  Centauro  And  STrange  Object  Research  ---  Exotic Aspects of Forward Physics at the LHC

E. Gladysz-Dziadus

CASTOR, a unique experimental design to probe the forward rapidity region at the LHC, is presented. Motivation and possibilities to search for a QGP, via unconventional signatures and in a region largely left unexplored by current and future high energy heavy ion experiments, are discussed.
