Parton-Hadron duality in event generators

Abstract

The validity of local parton-hadron duality within the framework of HERWIG and JETSET event generators is investigated. We concentrate on ${\mathrm{e}}^{+}{\mathrm{e}}^{-}$ annihilations in LEP 2 energy range as these interactions provide theoretically the cleanest condition for the discussion of this concept.
