Recent developments in the field of Two Photon Physics at LEP, and their contribution to QCD are reviewed.
The results obtained by the "Event Generators for Bhabha Scattering" working group during the CERN Workshop "Physics at LEP2" (1994/1995) are presented.
We discuss 2f production at LC energies (f \neq t). This type of reaction has a big event number and may give interesting hints to the existence and perhaps to details of New Physics like susy, LQ, Z', etc. {For} any search the radiative…
In its second phase, LEP has given the unique opportunity to study four fermion processes never observed before. This papers deals with a preliminary study of $WW$, $We\nu$, $ZZ$ and $Z\gamma^\star$ production in $e^+e^-$ collisions.…
In this contribution the new event generation framework SHERPA will be presented, which aims at a full simulation of events at current and future high-energy experiments. Some first results related to the production of weak vector bosons in…

This contribution lists challenges of Monte Carlo event generators for future lepton, especially linear colliders. A lot of the recent development benefits from the achievements at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), but several aspects are…

A summary of the W-boson properties measured by the four LEP collaborations is presented here. These properties are updated to take into account the most recent results presented at the ICHEP98 conference.
We describe the new version of the Monte Carlo event generator WOPPER for four fermion production through W-pairs including resummed leading logarithmic QED radiative corrections. Among the new features included are singly resonant…
The search for quartic anomalous gauge couplings at LEP requires appropriate predictions for the radiative processes e+ e- \to \nu\bar\nu \gamma\gamma, e+ e- \to q\bar{q}\gamma\gamma and e+ e- \to 4 fermions+\gamma. Matrix elements are…
In the energy region of LEP2 and above, four fermion final states in e+e- collisions can be produced by Feynman diagrams involving two, one or zero resonant bosons...
We compute the order-$\as$ corrections to the total cross section and to jet rates in $\gamma^* \gamma^* \to$ hadrons for the process $\epem\to\epem +$ hadrons. We use a NLO order general-purpose partonic Monte Carlo event generator that…
The Searches Working Group discussed a variety of topics relating to present and future measurements of searches at LEP 2. The individual contributions are included separately.

Cross sections, angular distributions and forward-backward asymmetries are presented, of two-fermion events produced in e+e- collisions at centre-of-mass energies from 189 to 209 GeV at LEP, measured with the ALEPH detector. Results for…
In certain regions of phase space in jet production, large logarithms can arise which are resummed by the BFKL equation. Linear colliders can potentially be excellent places to study BFKL effects in jet production. We discuss an approach to…
This thesis is concerned with the theory and the phenomenology of rapidity gap processes. We perform perturbative calculations of energy flow observables in jet-gap-jet processes, which consist of resummed primary emission calculations…
