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 nature of a jet's fragmentation in heavy-ion collisions has the potential to cast light on the mechanism of jet quenching. However the presence of the huge underlying event complicates the reconstruction of the jet fragmentation…
The field of fragmentation functions of light quarks and gluons is reviewed. In addition to integrated fragmentation functions, attention is paid to the dependence of fragmentation functions on transverse momenta and on polarization degrees…
After a brief review of the theoretical basis of void scaling function properties of hierarchical structure, we analyze the phenomenological consequences at single jet level in Monte Carlo e+e- annihilation events. We find an interesting…
We present studies of the angular and momentum distributions of charged particles in hadronic final states of e+e- annihilation. Some results are derived from reanalysis of data of the JADE experiment operating at the PETRA e+e- collider at…
In electron positron annihilation, changing quarks into the final hadron states is being described by fragmentation function. Based on the scaling hypothesis, this function will be independent from the center of mass energy. Gluon radiation…
Jet fragmentation functions measured in e^+e^- and p+\bar{p} experiments are well-described on an inclusive hadron level by QCD-based calculations. Fragmentation is expected to be modified by the presence of a strongly interacting medium,…
We estimate the power corrections (infrared renormalon contributions) to the coefficient functions for the transverse, longitudinal and asymmetric fragmentation functions in $e^+e^-$ annihilation, using a method based on the analysis of…
Jet fragmentation functions provide insight into jet structure and are expected to be modified by the nuclear medium in A+A collisions with respect to p+p reference measurements. If jet reconstruction is unbiased then a softening of the…
I review recent progress on bottom-quark fragmentation in e+e- annihilation, top-quark decay and H -> b bbar processes. I discuss the implementation of collinear and soft resummation, and the inclusion of non-perturbative information taken…
Recent LHC results indicate a suppression of jet fragmentation functions in Pb-Pb collisions at intermediate values of $\xi=\ln(1/z)$. This seems to contradict the picture of energy loss based on the induced QCD radiation that is expected…
A new framework is sketched for the treatment of the hadronisation of a highly-virtual quark and anti-quark jet pair created in electron-positron annihilations. As in such a case, factorization theorem does not work, a new scale-evolution…
We examine the physics content of fragmentation functions for inclusive hadron production in a quark jet and argue that it can be calculated in low energy effective theories. As an example, we present a calculation of $u$-quark…
A review of multijet rates and event-shape variables sensitive to multijet configuration with applications to measurements of alpha_s, QCD color factors and tests of power corrections is presented
It was shown that at typical energies and luminosities of an $e^+e^-$ linear collider one can observe a significant suppression of fluctuations of the number of gluons in small angular regions. This property of jets is expected in $e^+e^-$…
A short review of the history and a 'slide-show' of QCD tests in $e^+e^-$ annihilation is given. The world summary of measurements of $\alpha_s$ is updated.
The production of identified hadrons inside jets in $e^+ e^-$ annihilation allows for detailed studies of parton-to-hadron fragmentation functions in a clean environment. We compute hadron-in-jets production cross sections for $e^+e^- \to…
We present new sets of fragmentation functions for D^{*+-} mesons, both at leading and next-to-leading order. They are determined by fitting LEP1 data on inclusive D^{*+-} production in e^+e^- annihilation. In one of the sets, we take the…
The multiplicity of heavy quarks from gluon splitting in e+e- annihilation has now been theoretically calculated and experimentally measured at LEP. However, the experimental measurement requires theoretical input for the shape of the…
The fragmentation of an unpolarized quark into a transversely polarized spin-1/2 particle is studied in the framework of a simple model. Special attention is payed to the gluon exchange which is incorporated in the gauge link of the…
