Description
The existence of a deconfined state of matter (quark-gluon plasma, QGP)
in heavy-ion collisions have been shown in large experiments in the past
decades. However, it was the CERN LHC Run-2 data taking period that
really allowed for precision measurements aimed at the understanding of
its properties in detail. The excellent particle identification
capabilities of the ALICE experiment provide us with a unique
opportunity to study the nature of strongly interacting matter under
extreme conditions. A selection of recent ALICE results from pp, p-Pb, Pb-Pb and Xe-Xe
collisions, as well as prospects of the upcoming Run-III phase, will be
presented in this talk.
