By extracting the beam with a bent crystal or by using an internal gas target, the multi-TeV proton and lead LHC beams allow one to perform the most energetic fixed-target experiments ever and to study $pp$, $p$d and $p$A collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=115$ GeV and Pb$p$ and PbA collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=72$ GeV with high precision and modern detection techniques. Such studies would address open questions in the domain of the nucleon and nucleus partonic structure at high-$x$, quark-gluon plasma and, by using longitudinally or transversally polarised targets, spin physics.

Physics perspectives with AFTER@LHC (A Fixed Target ExpeRiment at LHC)
/ Massacrier, L. (Orsay, IPN) ; Anselmino, M. (INFN, Turin ; Turin U.) ; Arnaldi, R. (INFN, Turin ; Turin U.) ; Brodsky, S.J. (SLAC) ; Chambert, V. (Orsay, IPN) ; Da Silva, C.

AFTER@LHC is an ambitious fixed-target project in order to address open questions in the domain of proton and neutron spins, Quark Gluon Plasma and high-$x$ physics, at the highest energy ever reached in the fixed-target mode. Indeed, thanks to the highly energetic 7 TeV proton and 2.76 A.TeV lead LHC beams, center-of-mass energies as large as $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 115 GeV in pp/pA and $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 72 GeV in AA can be reached, corresponding to an uncharted energy domain between SPS and RHIC.

Heavy-flavour and quarkonium production in the LHC era: from proton-proton to heavy-ion collisions
/ Andronic, A. (Darmstadt, EMMI) ; Arleo, F. (Ecole Polytechnique ; Annecy, LAPTH) ; Arnaldi, R. (INFN, Turin) ; Beraudo, A. (INFN, Turin) ; Bruna, E. (INFN, Turin) ; Caffarri, D. (CERN) ; Conesa del Valle, Z. (Orsay, IPN) ; Contreras, J.G. (Prague, Tech. U.) ; Dahms, T. (Munich, Tech. U., Universe) ; Dainese, A. (INFN, Padua) et al.
This report reviews the study of open heavy-flavour and quarkonium production in high-energy hadronic collisions, as tools to investigate fundamental aspects of Quantum Chromodynamics, from the proton and nucleus structure at high energy to deconfinement and the properties of the Quark-Gluon Plasma. Emphasis is given to the lessons learnt from LHC Run 1 results, which are reviewed in a global picture with the results from SPS and RHIC at lower energies, as well as to the questions to be addressed in the future.

Spin Physics with a fixed-target experiment at the LHC
/ Echevarria, M.G. (INFN, Pavia) ; Brodsky, S.J. (SLAC) ; Cavoto, G. (INFN, Rome ; Rome U.) ; Da Silva, C. (Los Alamos) ; Donato, F. (INFN, Turin ; Turin U.) ; Ferreiro, E.G. (Santiago de Compostela U.) ; Hadjidakis, C. (Orsay, IPN) ; Hřivnácová, I. (Orsay, IPN) ; Kikoła, D. (Warsaw U. of Tech.) ; Klein, A. (Los Alamos) et al.
The multi-TeV proton and ion beams of the LHC would allow for the most energetic fixed-target experiment ever. In particular, $pp$, $p$d and $p$A collisions could be performed at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 115~GeV, as well as Pb$p$ and PbA collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 72~GeV, in a parasitic way by making use of the already existing LHCb and ALICE detectors in fixed-target mode.

Ultra-peripheral-collision studies in the fixed-target mode with the proton and lead LHC beams
/ Yamanaka, Nodoka (Orsay, IPN) ; Hadjidakis, C. (Orsay, IPN) ; Kikoła, D. (Warsaw U. of Tech.) ; Lansberg, J.P. (Orsay, IPN) ; Massacrier, L. (Orsay, IPN) ; Echevarria, M.G.

We address the physics case related to the studies of ultra-peripheral pH, pPb, PbH, and PbPb collisions in the fixed-target mode at the LHC. In particular, we discuss how one can measure the gluon generalized parton distribution $E_g(x,\xi,t)$ in exclusive $J/psi$ photoproduction with a transversely polarized hydrogen target..
