A possible existence of the local correspondence between parton and hadron distributions in hard processes (local parton-hadron duality) is discussed. First comparison is made to check up local duality at modern energies. It is shown, in particular, that an account of essential single-logarithmic corrections to leading double-logarithmic approximation proves sufficient to fit π± spectra ine+e− annihilation atW≳20GeV by theoretical perturbative spectra of QCD partons. Rapidity spectra versus the normalized rapidity appear to be similar for π,K, p. Further tests of local duality as well as effects of chromodynamical coherence are suggested.read more

Tuning Monte Carlo Generators: The Perugia Tunes
TL;DR: In this article, the p{sub perpendicular}-ordered shower and underlying event model in Pythia 6.4 is updated and supersede the older "S0" family, and a set of 8 related "Perugia variations" that attempt to systematically explore soft, hard, parton density, and color structure variations in the theoretical parameters.

On the multiplicity of hadrons in QCD jets
TL;DR: In this article, a three-loop calculation for the jet multiplicity of produced slightly off-shell gluons for pure Yang-Mills theory is presented, where planar and non-planar graphs are found to be equally important in an axial gauge.
