Description

Matrix elements to be used in second order Monte Carlo generators for e+e- annihilation have been derived from the O(αs2) calculations by Ellis, Ross and Terrano and by Kramer and Lampe. They were incorporated into the JETSET 6.3 Lund String Monte Carlo program. The recombination scheme dependence of the O(αs2) jet cross sections are studied in detail on the parton level (ERT) and on the hadron level (ERT and KL). (orig.)
