A non-perturbative approach to jet cross-sections and a new model for hadron-hadron interactions

The author discusses two subjects in this work. The first is a description of a non-perturbative approach to calculate the probabilities to obtain a particular state of confined force field in a hard interaction like e/sup +/e/sup -/ annihilation. This approach has been discussed previously by the author. There are at this time many more results of the program, in particular, some rather puzzling and disturbing ones as compared to the results obtained in perturbative QCD. The second subject is a new approach to hadron-hadron inelastic scattering. A model for these interactions based upon multiple perturbative parton interactions and subsequent string-stretching and breaking has been formulated by others in earlier works
