Event genera<strong>to</strong>rs<br />

At high energies many gluons are radiated. Then one needs <strong>to</strong> include<br />

high orders in αs for which complete, IR regulated matrix elements are not<br />

available.<br />

⇒ Shower Monte Carlo methods:<br />

Include only the log enhanced terms of tree digrams (no loops)<br />

Use phenomenological hadronization model for Q < µ.<br />

This gives approximate results for hadron<br />

distributions in the final state.<br />

The reliability is tested by including<br />

next-<strong>to</strong>-leading logarithms and comparing<br />

several hadronization models.<br />
