摘要
Data from e(+) e(-) annihilation into hadrons collected by the JADE experiment at centre-of-mass energies between 14 GeV and 44 GeV are used to study the four-jet event production rate as a function of the Durham jet algorithm's resolution parameter Ycut. The four-jet rate is compared to QCD next-to-leading order calculations including resummation of large logarithms in the next- to- leading logarithmic approximation. The strong coupling measured from the four-jet rate is S-alpha (M(Z)0) = 0.1159 +/- 0.0004(stat.) +/- 0.0012(exp.) +/- 0.0024(had.) +/- 0.0007(theo.) in agreement with the world average.
