Recent results on measurements of the strong coupling $alpha_S$ from LEP are reported. These include analyses of the 4-jet rate using the Durham or Cambridge algorithm, of hadronic $Z^0$ decays with hard final state photon radiation, of scaling violations of the fragmentation function, of the longitudinal cross section, of the $Z^0$ lineshape and of hadronic $tau$ lepton decays.
Recent results on jet physics and tests of QCD from hadronic final states in $e^+e^-$ annihilation at PETRA and at LEP are reviewed, with special emphasis on hadronic event shapes, charged particle production rates, properties of quark and gluon jets
Event shape data from e+e- annihilation into hadrons collected by the JADE experiment between sqrt(s)=14 and 44 GeV are used to determine the strong coupling alpha_S. QCD predictionscomplete to next-to-next-to-leading order (NLLO), alternatively comb
The four LEP experiments ALEPH, DELPHI, L3 and OPAL successfully recorded e+e- collision data during the years 1989 to 2000. As part of the ordinary evolution in High Energy Physics, these experiments can not be repeated and their data is therefore u
The evolution of the determination of the strong coupling constant $alpha_s$ from the leptonic branching ratios, the lifetime, and the invariant mass distributions of the hadronic final state of the $tau$ lepton over the last two decades is briefly r
We present a review of measurements of alpha_S. The individual measurements are discussed and intermediate averages for classes of related measurements are found. The final average is built using the intermediate values. Correlations are treated cons
