We calculate the mean number of subjets in quark and gluon jets in the final state of e^+e^- annihilation. Since `quark' and `gluon' jets are scheme-dependent objects, we stress the importance of using the same definition as in experimental…
We measure the subjet multiplicity M in jets reconstructed with a successive combination type of jet algorithm (k_T). We select jets with 55<E_T<100 GeV and | \eta | < 0.5. We compare similar samples of jets at sqrt{s} = 1800 and 630 GeV.…

A large variety of jet properties can be described perturbatively by evolving the parton cascade down to small scales of order of a few 100 MeV. We discuss two recent applications of this approach: 1. the soft limit of the particle spectrum…
Ratios of multiplicity moments, H_q (cumulant over factorial moments K_q/F_q), have been observed to show an oscillatory behaviour with respect to order, q. Recent studies of e^+e^- annihilations at LEP have shown, moreover, that the…
