Colour reconnection and its effects on precise measurements at the LHC

Abstract

There are experimental evidence for the occurrence of colour reconnection, but the mechanisms involved are far from understood. Previous reconnection studies are briefly summarized, and some potential implications for LHC physics are outlined.
