Abstract

The NA61/SHINE experiment is a fixed-target, broad acceptance facility at the CERN SPS. This contribution summarizes the most recent results from the strong interactions NA61/SHINE programme and presents news on the detector upgrade in preparation for the future data taking. The strong interactions programme consists in a two-dimensional scan in beam momentum (from 13A to 150A/158A GeV/c, \sqrt{s_{NN}} from 5.1 to 17.3 GeV) and system size (p + p, Be + Be, Ar + Sc, Xe + La reactions). The experiment searches for the second-order critical end-point in the temperature versus baryo-chemical potential phase diagram and studies the properties of the onset of deconfinement discovered by its predecessor, NA49 at the CERN SPS. The presented results include K/{\pi} multiplicity ratios as a function of energy and system size, singly and multi-strange hadron production in p + p reactions, multiplicity and net-charge fluctuations measured by higher order moments in p + p, Be + Be and Ar + Sc collisions, proton and charged hadron intermittency in Ar + Sc and Pb + Pb reactions, HBT measurements in Ar + Sc and collective electromagnetic effects in Ar + Sc collisions.
