Review of physics results from the Tevatron: QCD physics

Abstract

We present a summary of results from studies of quantum chromodynamics at the Fermilab Tevatron collider by the CDF and the D0 experiments. These include Run II results for the time period up to the end of Summer 2014. A brief description of Run I resultsis also given. This review covers a wide spectrum of topics, and includes measurements with jet and vector boson final states in the hard (perturbative) energy regime, as well as studies of soft physics such as diffractive and elastic scatterings, underlying and minimum bias events, hadron fragmentation, and multiple parton interactions.

Article submitted to the International Journal of Modern Physics A (IJMPA) as one of the seven chapters of the special issue on the "Review of Physics at the Tevatron", editor G. Bernardi. This article containes the chapter on the QCD physics part of the review. 44 pages, 36 figures, 132 references."
