Abstract
We have studied hadronic events produced at LEP at centre-of-mass ener gies of 130 and 136 GeV. Distributions of event shape observables, jet rates, momentum spectra and multiplicities are presented and compared to the predictions of several Monte Carlo models and analytic QCD cal culations. From fits of event shape and jet rate distributions to C(al pha(s)(2)) + NLLA QCD calculations, we determine alpha(s)(133 GeV)= 0. 110 +/- 0.005(stat.) +/- 0.009(syst.). We measure the mean charged par ticle multiplicity [n(ch)] = 23.40 +/- 0.45(stat.) +/- 0.47(syst.) and the position xi(0) of the peak in the xi(p) = ln(1/x(p)) distribution xi(0) = 3.94 +/- 0.05(stat.) +/- 0.11(syst.). These results are compa red to lower energy data and to analytic QCD or Monte Carlo prediction s for their energy evolution.
