The study of inclusive charged-particle production in heavy-ion collisions provides insights into the density of the medium and the energy-loss mechanisms. The observed suppression of high-$\textit{p}_\rm{T}$ yield is generally attributed to energy loss of partons as they propagate through a deconfined state of quarks and gluons - Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) - predicted by QCD. Such measurements allow the characterization of the QGP by comparison with models.
In these proceedings, results on high-$\textit{p}_\rm{T}$ particle production measured by ALICE in Pb-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{\rm{s}_\rm{NN}} = 5.02\,\rm{TeV}$ as well as well in pp at $\sqrt{\rm{s}} = 5.02\,\rm{TeV}$ are presented for the first time.
The nuclear modification factors ($\rm{R}_\rm{AA}$) in Pb-Pb collisions are presented and compared with model calculations.
