Results on strange hadron and resonance production in Pb–Pb collisions at the LHC with ALICE

Strange hadrons and resonances are among the most sensitive probes to investigate the characteristics of the system formed in high-energy heavy-ion collisions. The ALICE Collaboration has measured strange hadrons and meson resonances decaying into final states with charged particles. Results on the...
