Abstract
The four jet topology is analysed in the ALEPH data taken between Nove mber 1995 and October 1997, at centre-of-mass energies ranging from 13 0 to 184 GeV, While an unexpected accumulation of events with a dijet mass sum around 105 GeV/c(2) had been observed during the first run in 1995 at 130/136 GeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.7 pb(-1), no significant differences between data and standard model pr ediction is seen, either in the high energy runs (81.1 pb(-1) taken at centre-of-mass energies from 161 to 184 GeV) or in the 7.1 pb(-1) rec orded during a new short fun at 130/136 GeV in 1997, We have found no other explanation for the earlier reported ''four jet anomaly'' than a statistical fluctuation.
