Light (anti)nuclei production with the ALICE experiment at the LHC

The measurement of light (anti)nuclei production in high-energy pp, p–A, and A–A collisions is a powerful tool to understand the hadronization process. The ALICE experiment, among the LHC experiments, is particularly well suited for the study of light (anti)nuclei production thanks to its excellent tracking capabilities and particle identification in a wide range of transverse momentum. Particles with mass numbers up to A=4, such as (anti)deuterons, (anti)tritons, (anti)3He, and (anti)4He have been successfully identified in the pseudorapidity region |η| < 0.9. In this contribution selected results on light (anti)nuclei production are presented, such as particle yields, transverse momentum distribution and comparison with hadronization models. In addition recent results on (anti)deuteron production in jets are discussed.
