Power Corrections at LEP

Abstract

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 measured at LEP as well as previous experiments. The obtained corrections are compared to other approaches and theoretical predictions. Measurements of αs using power corrections are compared to conventional methods.
