A determination of the hadronic fragmentation functions of the Z-boson is presented from a study of the inclusive hadron production wit the DELPHI detector at LEP. These fragmentation functions were compared with the ones at lower energies,…

We discuss some important issues concerning multiplicities in quark and gluon jets in e+e- annihilation. In QCD the properties of a jet in general depend on two scales, the energy and virtuality of the jet. Frequently theoretical…
We investigate the origin of the quark-hadron duality-violating terms in the expansion of the QCD two-point vector correlation function at large energies in the complex $q^2$ plane. Starting from the dispersive representation for the…
We will offer the formal arguments that the very high multiplicity (VHM) events are defined by the heavy QCD jets and, with exponential over multiplicity accuracy, the number of jets must decrease with the increasing multiplicity. This must…
We analyze experimental data for the production of Lambda baryons in e^+e^- annihilation in terms of scale dependent, QCD evolved, Lambda fragmentation functions. Apart from the vast majority of the data for which the polarization of an…
The study of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) at ultra-relativistic energies can be performed in a controlled environment through lepton-hadron deep inelastic scatterings. In such collisions, the high-energy partonic emissions that follow from…
We study the particle multiplicity in a jet or sub-jet as derived from an energy-multiplicity 2-particle correlation. This definition avoids the notion of a globally fixed jet axis and allows for the study of smaller jet cone openings in a…
The spectra of charged particles in the energy variable $\xi = \log 1/x$ (``the hump backed plateau'') are analyzed in terms of moments in order to investigate the sensitivity to the running of $\alpha_s$ in particular towards small scales,…
Results from a modified Diffusion Limited Aggregation (DLA) model are presented. The modifications of the classical DLA model are in the attachment to the cluster rules and in the scheme of particle generation/killing. In the classical DLA…
We show how deviations from the dimensional scaling laws for exclusive processes may be related to a breakdown in the locality of quark-hadron duality. The essential principles are illustrated in a pedagogic model of a composite system with…
We use the semiclassical formalism based on singular solutions in complex time to compute scattering rates for multiparticle production at high energies. In a weakly coupled $\lambda \phi^4$ scalar field theory in four dimensions, we…
The scale invariant unparticle physics recently proposed by Georgi could manifest at low energies as non integral number d_U of invisible particles. Unparticles if existing, could couple to the Standard Model fields and consequently affect…
Deep-inelastic scattering at small x is a new field of QCD phenomenology which HERA experiments started to explore. The data show the feature expected by the perturbative Regge asymptotics. We describe the parton picture of structure…
Diffusion-Limited Aggregation (DLA), the canonical model for non-equilibrium fractal growth, emerges from the simple rule of irreversible attachment by random walkers. Despite four decades of study, a unified computational framework…
Generalization of z-scaling observed in the inclusive high-pT charged hadron and jet production is proposed. The scaling function psi(z) describing both charged hadrons and jets produced in proton-(anti)proton collisions for various…
Perturbative QCD predicts that at sufficiently large $Q^2$ and small $x$ nucleon structure functions should exhibit scaling in the two variables $\sqrt{\ln\smallfrac{1}{x}\ln\ln Q^2}$ and $\sqrt{\ln\smallfrac{1}{x}\big/\ln\ln Q^2}$,…

We present the QCD analysis of D-parameter distribution in near-to-planar 3-jet e+e- annihilation events. We derive the all-order resummed perturbative prediction and the leading power suppressed non-perturbative corrections both to the…
The evolution equation for parton multiplicities in quark and gluon jets which takes into account the soft gluon interference is solved numerically using the initial conditions at threshold. If the k_T-cutoff Q_c is lowered towards the…
