A brief review of jet physics is presented with an emphasis upon open theoretical problems (non-perturbative domain; hadronization and confinement) and new phenomena (hadroproduction in heavy ion collisions).
We present the basic aspects of deep inelastic phenomena in the framework of the QCD parton model. After recalling briefly the standard kinematics, we discuss the physical interpretation of unpolarized and polarized structure functions in…
Inspired by the relation between the hadronic decay of the tau lepton and the electron-positron annihilation into hadrons, we derive new tests of perturbative QCD. We design a set of commensurate scale relations to test the self-consistency…
The inclusive tau lepton hadronic decay is studied within Dispersive approach to QCD. The significance of effects due to hadronization is convincingly demonstrated. The approach on hand proves to be capable of describing experimental data…
Underlying events dominate most of the hadronic activity in p$-$p collisions and are spanned from perturbative to non-perturbative QCD, having a sensitivity ranging from the multi-scale to very low-x scale physics. A detailed understanding…
The processes $p p \rightarrow V_1 V_2 + X \rightarrow \ell_1 \bar \ell_1 \ell_2 \bar \ell_2 + X$, where $V_i = W^{\pm}$ or $Z$ and $\ell_i$ denotes a lepton, are calculated to ${\cal O}(\alpha_s)$. Total and differential cross sections,…
Event classifiers are the most fundamental observables to probe the event topology of hadronic and nuclear collisions at relativistic energies. Over the last five decades, significant progress has been made to establish suitable event…
The measurements of the hadronic final state in deep inelastic scattering at HERA are reviewed and discussed in the context of QCD. Covered are the general event properties in terms of energy flows, charged particle production, and charm…
Disentangling New Physics effects from the Standard Model requires a good understanding of all pieces that stem from the latter, especially the uncertainties that might plague the theoretical estimations within the Standard Model. In the…
The latest standard model predictions of rare leptonic B_q --> l^+ l^- decays are reviewed including recent results of next-to-leading electroweak and next-to-next-to-leading QCD corrections.
In this talk I report on recent developments and results relevant for LHC phenomenology at next-to-leading order QCD. Feynman diagrammatic and unitarity based methods have both seen considerable improvements and new ideas recently. Current…
We reminde definite results related to the low-energy hadronic phenomenology, obtained using the QCD sum rules methods. We emphasize that these results can be of interest for the comparison with available and new experimental results,…
We update the comparison with experiment of the dynamical model of high-energy hadron interactions based on the two scale structure of hadrons. All predictions made over decade ago are confirmed with a high precision by the TOTEM experiment…
Experiments will soon start taking data at CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC) with high expectations for discovery of new physics phenomena. Indeed, the LHC's unprecedented center-of-mass energy will allow the experiments to probe an energy…
The determination of the pattern of hadronic resonances as predicted by Quantum Chromodynamics requires the use of non-perturbative techniques. Lattice QCD has emerged as the dominant tool for such calculations, and has produced many QCD…

Results on QCD studies from the H1 and ZEUS Collaborations at the ep collider HERA are presented and their impact on LHC physics discussed.
Fundamental particle physics is at a cross road. On the one hand the Standard Model successfully accounts for all experimental observations to date. On the other hand the ElectroWeak symmetry breaking mechanism is poorly understood and…
The Les Houches Workshop on Physics at TeV Colliders took place from June 8-18, 1999. One of the three working groups at Les Houches concentrated on QCD issues, both at the Tevatron Collider and at the LHC. Besides the interest in QCD in…
I present a concise review of where we stand in particle physics today. First, I will discuss QCD, then the electroweak sector and finally the motivations and the avenues for new physics beyond the Standard Model.
