Abstract
Light flavor hadron and inclusive charged particle spectra provide an interesting probe of the particle production mechanisms and the transport properties of QCD matter. Charged particle and neutral meson inclusive pT-differential cross sections in pp, p-Pb, Pb-Pb and Xe-Xe collisions have been measured by ALICE. Charged particles are studied in different multiplicity (for pp and p-Pb where available) and centrality classes (for A-A). The comparison of spectra at similar〈dNch/dη〉, the nuclear modification factors, the mean pTand particle ratios will also be presented considering those are observables important to get information on the properties of the medium formed in the collisions. Comparisons with model calculations will also be discussed.
