Recent results for the (anti-)(hyper-)nuclei production and searches for exotica by ALICE at the LHC

The excellent tracking and particle identification capabilities of the ALICE apparatus combined with the high particle production rates reached at the LHC in pp, p-Pb and in particular in Pb-Pb collisions allow for detailed study of the production of (anti-)(hyper-)nuclei and searches for exotica, like dibaryons. In this report, we present recent results on the production of the (anti-)deuteron and (anti-)helium. Further, we discuss recent results on the production and the lifetime of the (anti-)hypertriton. In addition, results from the searches for the weakly-decaying exotic nuclear bound states H-dibaryon and An are shown. The results are compared with the expectations from statistical (thermal) particle production and coalescence models. (paper)
