By selecting two-jet like events and employing sensitive observable, we find that two kinds of colour connections at the hard-soft interface lead to significantly differences in hadron states.
Over the years, many jet clustering algorithms have been proposed for the analysis of hadronic final states in $e^+e^-$ annihilations. These have somewhat different emphasis and are therefore more or less suited for various applications. We…

The structure of three-jet e+e- -> b bbar g events has been studied using hadronic Z0 decays recorded in the SLD experiment at SLAC. Three-jet final states were selected and the CCD-based vertex detector was used to identify two of the jets…

The $e^+e^-$ annihilation of unpolarized beams is free from initial hadron states or initial anisotropy around the azimuthal angle, hence ideal for studying the correlations of dynamical origin via final state jets. We investigate the…
We report on the next-to-leading order QCD calculation for e+ e- --> 4 jets. We explain some modern techniques which have been used to calculate the one-loop amplitudes efficiently. We further report on the general purpose numerical program…

The increase of the centre-of-mass energy of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) to 13 TeV has opened up a new energy regime. Final states including high-momentum multi-jet signatures often dominate beyond standard model phenomena, in…
