Abstract

Production of light-flavor hadrons in pp, p–Pb and Pb–Pb collisions at the LHC has been measured by ALICE. The light-flavor hadrons (π±π±, K±K±, Ks0, p, p¯, Λ  , Λ¯, ϕ  ) are identified in the various momentum ranges by using specific energy loss (dE/dxdE/dx), time-of-flight, Cherenkov radiation, and via decay topology and invariant mass analysis for decayed particles. In these proceedings, the pTpT spectra, yields and ratios of light-flavor hadrons measured in pp, p–Pb and Pb–Pb collisions in multiplicity (centrality) intervals are presented. The hadron production in different collision systems is compared and confronted with theoretical models.
