Recent results on QCD studies in e+e- annihilations at LEP are presented. Data recorded by the LEP experiments at centre-of-mass energies between 91.2 to 206 GeV are included. The main topic is the measurement of alpha_s from event-shape…

New results from measurements of the strong coupling constant $\alpha_s(M_Z)$ at LEP are presented. In particular, a new LEP combination of results based on event-shape variables has become available, where a new method for the estimation…

Studies of event shape observables at PETRA and LEP energies are presented. Previously published determinations of the strong coupling constant \alpha_s at \sqrt{s} = 35 and 44 GeV are complemented using new resummed QCD calculations for…

Data from e+e- annihilation into hadrons collected by the JADE, the L3 and the OPAL experiment at centre-of-mass energies between 14 GeV and 209 GeV are used to determine the strong coupling alpha_S. Observables in leading order sensitive…

A summary is given of the current status of measurements of the strong coupling constant $\alpha_s$ performed at LEP. These include measurements from inclusive observables as well as from event shape variables. Recent results based on power…

A study of the energy dependence of event shape observables is presented. The strong coupling constant \alpha_s has been determined from the mean values of six event shape observables. Power corrections, employed for the measurement of…

Results are presented from a study of the structure of high energy hadronic events recorded by the L3 detector at sqrt(s)>192 GeV. The distributions of several event shape variables are compared to resummed O(alphaS^2) QCD calculations. We…

Hadronic final states with a hard isolated photon are studied using data taken at centre-of-mass energies around $\Mz$ with the OPAL detector at LEP. The strong coupling $\as$ is extracted by fitting event shape variables for the reduced…

Since 1995, LEP has steadily increased the center of mass energy of the colliding beams, from the M_Z resonance to 133, 161 and 172 GeV. New measurements of the strong coupling constant, alpha_s, at these energies have been performed by the…

A combination of measurements of alpha_s in e+e- annihilation at LEP is presented. Distributions of various event-shape variables measured by ALEPH, DELPHI, L3 and OPAL at centre-of-mass energies from 41 GeV to 206 GeV are analysed in a…

We report results on measurements of the strong coupling \as from event shape data at \Petra and \Lep. These include analyses of their distributions employing the recent NLLO calculations and analyses of their moments using NLO and power…

Data from electron positron annihilations at different center of mass energies are collected by the four LEP experiments. Direct tests of hard QCD are performed by measuring and analysing event shape observables.

Multi-hadronic events produced in e+e- collisions provide an excellent laboratory to study QCD, the theory of strong interactions, and in particular to determine the strong coupling parameter alpha_s and demonstrate its predicted behavior…

Several preliminary QCD results from e+e- interactions at LEP are reported. These include studies of event shape variables, which are used to determine alpha_s and for studies of the validity of power corrections. Further, a study of color…

Hadronic event shape distributions are determined from data in e+e- collisions between 183 and 207 GeV. From these the strong coupling alpha_s is extracted in O(alpha_s^2), NLLA and matched O(alpha_s^2)+NLLA theory. Hadronisation…

Data recorded by the JADE experiment at the PETRA e^+e^- collider were used to measure the event shape observables thrust, heavy jet mass, wide and total jet broadening and the differential 2-jet rate in the Durham scheme. For the latter…

We have studied hadronic events from e+e- annihilation data at centre-of-mass energies from 91 to 209 GeV. We present distributions of event shape observables and their moments at each energy and compare with QCD Monte Carlo models. From…

Data from e+e-annihilation into hadrons collected by the JADE experiment at centre-of-mass energies between 14 GeV and 44 GeV were used to study moments of event shape distributions and the four-jet rate as a function of the Durham…

Hadronic final states with a hard isolated photon are studied using data taken at centre-of-mass energies around the mass of the Z0 boson with the OPAL detector at LEP. The strong coupling alpha S is extracted by comparing data and QCD…

The size of non-perturbative corrections to event shape observables is predicted to fall like powers of the inverse centre of mass energy. These power corrections are investigated for different observables from $e^+e^-$-annihilation…
