The internal structure of the jets produced in neutral current interactions for Q^2>125 GeV^2 has been studied using the subjet multiplicity with the ZEUS detector at HERA. Jets are identified in the laboratory frame by applying the…
Results from the study of jets in hadronic final states produced in e+e- annihilation at sqrt(s)=14 to 209 GeV are discussed. Precise measurements of the strong coupling alpha_S at many points of sqrt(s) provide convincing evidence for the…
The current world-average of the strong coupling at the Z pole mass, $\alpha_s(m^2_{Z}) = 0.1181 \pm 0.0013$, is obtained from a comparison of perturbative QCD calculations computed, at least, at next-to-next-to-leading-order accuracy, to a…
Several topics in hadron physics at different scales of resolution are discussed. First, deep-inelastic scattering from nucleons and nuclei is viewed in a light-cone coordinate space picture. Then the smooth transition from parton to hadron…

Soft quantum chromodynamics (QCD) measurements play an important role in fundamental QCD studies as well as in tuning of corresponding Monte Carlo generator models for a good description of experimental data. Recent results of soft QCD…

Studies of hadronic final states of $e^+e^-$ annihilations at LEP are reviewed. The topics included cover hadronic event shapes, measurements of $\alpha_s$, determinations of QCD colour factors and tests of the non-Abelian gauge structure…
We give a status report of our current theoretical work on QCD near the light-cone.
I shall review the present status of Tevatron QCD studies, focusing on the production of jets, vector bosons, photons and heavy quarks. In general there is good agreement between the results of current calculational tools and the…
Ultra-relativistic heavy ion collisions at RHIC and the LHC open exciting new possibilities for jet physics studies in the presence of hot and dense nuclear matter. Recent theoretical advances in understanding the QCD multi-parton dynamics…
We motivate the study of ``Minijets'' (that is jets soft with respect to the hard scattering, but hard with respect to \Lambda_QCD) as a means to study the underlying QCD colour flow in events. We discuss, with the aid of a simplistic…
Using two methods, via fluctuations and correlations, an analytical formula is derived for the factorial multiplicity moments in a QCD jet at the Double Leading Logarithm accuracy. The resulting self-similar dependence on the solid-angle…
