Quarkonia measurements with the ALICE TRD — •Wolfgang Sommer — Institut für Kernphysik, J. W. Goethe Universität Frankfurt, August-Euler-Str. 6, 60486 Frankfurt/M., Germany

The ALICE experiment is designed to measure a large variety of heavy ion and proton proton reactions at the LHC. One major component is the Transition Radiation Detector (TRD), which will provide electron/pion separation in the high p_t region. The central barrel consisting of Inner Tracking System (ITS), Time Projection Chamber (TPC) and the TRD will enable detailed studies on different Quarkonia states by measuring high p_t electrons.

We present the latest performance studies on detecting dilepton pairs, done within the framework of the ALICE simulation package ALIROOT.
