The Lund model, inspired by quantum chromodynamics, has provided a
promising approach to the dynamics of quark and gluon interactions.
Starting with a brief reprise of basic concepts in relativity,
quantum mechanics of fields and particle physics, this book
discusses: the dynamics of the massless relativistic string;
confinement; causality and relativistic covariance; Lund
fragmentation processes; QED and QCD Bremsstrahlung; multiplicities
and particle-parton distributions. Throughout the book, theory is
confronted with current experimental data, and implications for
future experiments are also considered. The book also explores the
relationships between the Lund model and other models based on
field theory (the Schwinger model, S-matrix models, light-cone
algebra physics and variations of the parton model), and models
based on statistical mechanics (the Feynman-Wilson gas, scaling,
iterative cascade models). This title, first published in 1998, has
been reissued as an Open Access publication on Cambridge Core.
