Description

Light flavor hadron production has been studied over the last years in pp, p-Pb, and Pb-Pb collisions. In 2017, the ALICE Collaboration collected data from the collisions between Xenon nuclei at center-of-mass energy per colliding nucleon pair of 5.44 TeV. Such medium-sized nuclei offer the opportunity to reach multiplicities covering the gaps between Pb-Pb and pp collisions, thus contributing to a detailed characterization of hadron production as a function of system size. In this contribution, the measurements of pions, kaons, (anti-)protons, ϕ mesons, as well as strange hadrons will be presented. These measurements will be discussed in the context of state-of-the-art particle production models.
