Description
The research program of the NA61/SHINE Collaboration covers a wide range of hadronic physics in the CERN SPS energy range (beam momentum 13A - 158A GeV/c), encompassing measurements of hadron-hadron, hadron-nucleus, and nucleus-nucleus collisions. Data are analyzed better to understand the properties of hot and dense nuclear matter. This talk will present the energy dependence of quantities inspired by the Statistical Model of Early Stage and recent results of particle production properties
in p+p and centrality selected Be+Be, Ar+Sc at the SPS energies. Moreover, the current achievements and plans related to measuring open charm production will be presented.
