Perturbative QCD Approach to Multiparticle Production
Abstract
In this review we discuss the analytical perturbative approach, based on perturbative QCD and Local Parton Hadron Duality (LPHD), and its application to multiparticle production in jets in the semisoft region. Analytical formulae are presented for various observables within the accuracy of the Modified Leading Logarithmic Approximation (MLLA), i.e. with terms of relative order taken into account systematically, and in some cases with even higher accuracy. These predictions are confronted with existing experimental data. Many details of the perturbative approach to multiple hadroproduction have been consolidated in recent years, and the overall picture is remarkably healthy. The prospects of future studies of the semisoft jet physics are also discussed.
