I will summarize the numerous contributions which were presented in the session, Hadronic and Spin Physics, largely dominated by new experimental results.

This series of lectures consists of two parts. In the first part the foundations of perturbative and non perturbative formulation are discussed. The ambiguity in the definition of vacuum condensates is then analyzed. In the second part the…

Power corrections to hadronic event shapes are estimated using a recently suggested relationship between perturbative and non-perturbative effects in QCD. The infrared cutoff dependence of perturbative calculations is related to…

We construct an improved version of nonrelativistic QCD for use in lattice simulations of heavy quark physics, with the goal of reducing systematic errors from all sources to below 10\%. We develop power counting rules to assess the…

This talk covers a selection of topics that were discussed at this meeting in the non-heavy-ion sessions: (a) The high $Q^{2}$ events at HERA and their theoretical interpretation. (b) The issues of how well we know the predictions of QCD,…

Recent developments in the field of Two Photon Physics at LEP, and their contribution to QCD are reviewed.

This report is a survey on QCD Event Generator issues of relevance for LEP 2. It contains four main sections: a summary of experience from LEP 1, extrapolations to LEP 2 energies, Monte Carlo descriptions and standardization issues.

The lattice regularization of QCD provides us with the most systematic way of computing non-perturbative properties of hadrons directly from the first principles of QCD. The recent rapid development of parallel computers has enabled us to…

Some highlights of the session on jets and hadron production are summarised. Results between different experiments and measurements are compared and, in particular, how LEP and HERA complement each other discussed. Improvements in both…

This talk examines recent progress in collider QCD and some facets of the interplay between these developments and searches for new particles and phenomena at the Tevatron and LHC.

I summarize recent lattice results on QCD at finite temperatures and densities. Studies on the nature of the QCD transition at the physical point, continuum extra polations of thermodynamic quantities, and new calculations of hadronic…

Non-perturbative lattice studies of QCD in the chiral thermodynamic regime, where chiral symmetry is spontaneously broken, require to deal with almost quark zero modes in a theoretically clean and computationally efficient way. We discuss…

Hadronic final states at the LHC will be an interesting testing ground for QCD. A good understanding of QCD radiation will also be important for the discovery of new physics at the LHC. I discuss some aspects of this subject and give a few…

In quark-antiquark pair production at LEP, many features of the hadronic final state can be predicted by QCD. Using data collected by the OPAL experiment, we present the statistical distributions of fourteen "event shape observables," which…

The dispersive approach to QCD is applied to the study of the inclusive tau lepton hadronic decay. This approach provides the unified integral representations for the hadronic vacuum polarization function, related R function, and Adler…

The increasing importance of hadronic resonances in our understanding of the Standard Model is underscored by recent advancements in lattice Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) calculations. We review recent developments, with a particular…
