Multi-strange baryons are of particular interest in the understanding of particle production mechanisms, as their high strangeness content makes them more susceptible to changes in the hadrochemistry of the colliding systems. In this talk, $\Xi$ and $\Omega$ production rates measured with ALICE are reported as a function of $p_{\mathrm{T}}$ in proton-proton (pp), proton-lead (p-Pb) and...

Multi-strange hadrons are excellent probe to the hadronization of
the hot and dense medium produced in heavy ion collisions, since
they may decouple earlier from the hadronic system. The STAR measurements of $\Omega$ to $\phi$ ratio and $\Omega$, $\phi$ nuclear modification factors at intermediate $p_{\rm T}$ at top RHIC energies are consistent with expectations from...

The high collision energies reached at the LHC lead to significant production yields of light (hyper-)nuclei in proton-proton, proton-lead and, in particular, lead-lead collisions. The excellent particle identification capabilities of the ALICE apparatus, based on the specific energy loss in the time projection chamber and the velocity information in the time-of-flight detector, allow for the...

Recent measurements of the proton to pion ratio from ALICE at the LHC have found it to be lower than the expected ratio anticipated by thermal models. We investigated the role that Hagedorn states- massive resonances with an exponential mass spectrum and large decay widths- play in the determination of particle ratios at LHC through a scenario of multiparticle reactions and dynamical chemical...

The main aim of the RHIC Beam Energy Scan (BES) program is to
explore the QCD phase diagram which includes search for a possible
QCD critical point and the phase boundary between QGP and hadronic phase.
We report the collision energy and centrality dependence of kinetic
freeze-out properties from the measured mid-rapidity light hadrons
(pions, kaons, protons and their...
