Comparing Quark Jets in e+e- and DIS

I discuss event cuts in DIS which improve the similarity between the current Breit hemisphere and hemispheres in $e^+e^-$ annihilation. I also present a method to study the scale evolution in quark hemispheres using data from fixed energy $e^+e^-$ experiments. This method can benefit from the high statistics and flavour tagging at LEP1, also at scales relevant for a comparison with HERA results.

Observables Probing the Perturbative-Nonperturbative Transition Region in QCD

Benefiting from the high statistics from $e^+e^-$ experiments at the $Z^0$ resonance, it is possible to impose strong two-jet cuts on the data without losing the statistical significance. In these events perturbative activity is suppressed and hadronization effects can be more prominent. I give two examples of observables that can be important tools for a more detailed study of the hadronization mechanism.

On Particle Multiplicities in Three-jet Events

A thorough verification of the distinct differences in the properties of quark and gluon jets is considered as one of the most instructive tests of the basic ideas of QCD. In the real life experiments such a comparison appears to be quite a delicate task and various subtle issues require further theoretical efforts. In this paper we discuss in detail the possibility to extract the theoretically adequate information from the particle multiplicity patterns in three-jet events in e+e- annihilation.

Using Two-jet Events to Understand Hadronization

While the hard phase of the strong interaction is well described by perturbative QCD, the soft hadronization phase is less understood. Benefiting from the high statistics from e+e- experiments at the Z0 resonance, it is possible to impose strong two-jet cuts on the data without loosing the statistical significance. In these events perturbative activity is suppressed and hadronization effects can be more prominent. We show that after proper event cuts a set of observables are sensitive to differences in the hadronization models. These observables can thus be important tools for a more detailed study of the hadronization mechanism.
