Plans for FELIX, a full acceptance detector for the future CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC), are described. The physics goals include detailed studies of the strong interactions (QCD), the forward energy flow and diffractive processes (Pomeron interactions), electroweak rapidity gaps, and elastic scattering. The precise measurement of particle production at a centre-of-mass energy of 14 TeV, well...
