Abstract

New studies of hadronic event shape observables in e+ e- collisions between 13 and 183 GeV CM energy have enabled the running of alphas to be confirmed and the validity of non-perturbative power-law corrections to be investigated. A more precise value of alphas(MZ) with reduced theoretical errors has been reported from fitting 18 oriented event shape distributions measured in one experiment at the Z.
