The three different helicity states of W bosons produced in the reaction e+ e- -> W+ W- -> l nu q q~ at LEP are studied using leptonic and hadronic W decays. Data at centre-of-mass energies \sqrt s = 183-209 GeV are used to measure the…
Bose-Einstein correlations of pairs of identical charged pions produced in hadronic Z decays are analyzed in terms of various parametrizations. A good description is achieved using a L\'evy stable distribution in conjunction with a model…
This note presents a combination of published and preliminary electroweak results from the four LEP collaborations and the SLD collaboration which were prepared for the 2003 summer conferences. Averages from $\Zzero$ resonance results are…
We estimate final state interactions in the B-meson decays into two pions by the Regge model. We consider Pomeron exchange and the leading Regge trajectories that can relate intermediate particles to the final state. In some cases, most…
A Regge model calculation relates the strong phase in $B \to DK$ to that in $B\to D\pi$. This provides a significant test of a hadronic picture of final state interactions in B decays.
Bose-Einstein correlations of identical charged-pion pairs produced in hadronic Z decays are analyzed in terms of various parametrizations. A good description is achieved using Levy stable distributions. The source function is reconstructed…
At LEP II it is hoped to measure the W mass to an accuracy of around 40 MeV. This will require direct reconstruction of the mass of the W from its decay products in both the semi-leptonic and hadronic decay channels. Final state…

Bose-Einstein correlations of pairs of identical charged pions produced in hadronic Z decays and in 7 TeV pp minimum bias interactions are investigated within the framework of the tau-model.
Hadronic events in $e^+ e^- \to Z^0$ are generated by a Monte-Carlo model including the production of colour separate states. These events are compared with those produced by the JETSET with default set of parameters where the colour…
In the factorized picture of semi-inclusive hadronic processes the naive time reversal-odd parton distributions exist by virtue of the gauge link which renders it color gauge invariant. The link characterizes the dynamical effect of…
We study the effects of final state interactions in the non-mesonic weak decay $\Lambda N \rightarrow nN$ (n is a neutron and N is either a neutron or a proton) of the hypernucleus $_\Lambda^4$He. Using a three-body model the effects of…
We are presenting here the new formulae for Bose-Einstein correlations (BEC) which contain effects of final state interactions (FSI) of both strong (in $s$-wave) and electromagnetic origin. We demonstrate the importance of FSI in BEC by…
According to the basic properties of QCD, colour reconnection effects can occur in hadronic processes at high energies. The comparison of $e^{+}e^{-}\to Z^0Z^0\to q\bar{q}q'\bar{q'}$ events with the superposition of $Z^0\to q\bar{q}$ and…
Recent experimental results on color coherence phenomena from e+e-, ep, and ppbar collisions are presented. The data are compared to analytic perturbative QCD calculations based on the modified leading logarithm approximation and the local…
It is observed that the finite size of hadrons produced in high energy collisions implies that their positions are correlated, since the probability of finding two hadrons on top of each other is highly reduced. It is then shown that this…
Energy flow distributions from tagged $\gamma\gamma$ events generated with HERWIG are presented for $E_{beam} = 45.6$ GeV (LEP1) and $E_{beam} = 175$ GeV (top-quark threshold at a future e^+e^- Linear Collider). They have very similar…

We have a very limited knowledge about how the confinement mechanism works in processes like $\epea\epe\ra\epq\epqa\ggn\ldots\ggn$, when there are identical colour charges. In this case the partons can be connected by a string or a cluster…
