Recent QCD Results from LEP-1 and LEP-2
Abstract
Description
A summary is given of some recent QCD results from LEP. For LEP-2, the topics include event shape measurements, determinations of the strong coupling constant, and measurements of the charged particle multiplicity distribution at the recently completed run at 189 GeV. For LEP-1, the topics presented are a test of the flavor independence of the strong coupling constant and a study of gluon jets using a hemisphere definition to correspond to analytic calculations. For the combined LEP data samples, the topics include a test of power law corrections for hadronization effects and the running of the strong coupling strength.
