Heavy hadron production in $e^+e^-$ annihilation is studied in the framework of heavy-quark recombination mechanism. This mechanism predicts a new type of 3-jet event such as $b\bar{b}q$ or $b\bar{b}\bar{q}$, which is power-suppressed…

Gluon jets are identified in e+e- hadronic annihilation events by tagging two quark jets in the same hemisphere of an event. The gluon jet is defined inclusively as all the particles in the opposite hemisphere. Gluon jets defined in this…
It is shown that the azimuthal dependence of the distribution of hadrons in a quark jet is a probe of the transverse spin of the quark initiating the jet. This results in a new spin-dependent fragmentation function that acts at the twist-2…
We discuss the possibilities of testing of perturbative quantum chromodynamics through azimuthal asymmetries in polarized ep in the context of future collider and fixed target facilities, such as Electron Ion Collider and TESLA-N.
The perturbative QCD provides a good overall description of both the jet and hadron multiplicities in the $e^+e^-$ annihilation reaction. In this description the hadrons are considered as dual to partons at a small resolution parameter…
Forward-backward (charge) asymmetry in the processes of $e^+e^-$ annihilation into a pair of charged pseudoscalar mesons is recalculated in the one-loop approximation. The exact dependence on the meson masses is taken into account. Results…
Azimuthal anisotropies of high-$p_T$ particles produced in heavy-ion collisions are understood as an effect of a geometrical selection bias. Particles oriented in the direction in which the QCD medium formed in these collisions is shorter,…

The collimation $C$ of a hadronic event in the e^+e^- annihilation is defined as the average of $\cos\theta$, $C=<\cos\theta>$, where $\theta$ is the angle of each hadron measured from the thrust axis, and the average is over all the…
The energy-energy-correlator (EEC) observable in $e^+e^-$ annihilation measures the energy deposited in two detectors as a function of the angle between the detectors. The collinear limit, where the angle between the two detectors…
By selecting two-jet like events and employing sensitive observable, we find that two kinds of colour connections at the hard-soft interface lead to significantly differences in hadron states.
The structure of e+e- -> b bbar g events was studied using Z0 decays recorded in the SLD experiment at SLAC. Three-jet final states were selected and the CCD-based vertex detector was used to identify two of the jets as b or bbar.…
The Qweak experiment aims to measure the weak charge of the proton to 4% via the parity-violating asymmetry ($\sim$-200 ppb) in elastic e+p scattering. The scattering rate is largely influenced by five beam parameters: horizontal position…
