Abstract

Selected, recent results, primarily form collider experiments but including some fixed target experiments, are presented as a survey of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD). The concepts of leading order and next-to-leading order QCD are introduced. Inclusive [Formula: see text] jet and dijet production and deep inelastic ep scattering at very large momentum transfer are shown to be in good agreement with perturbative QCD (pQCD). Dijet, three-jet and multi-jet results from [Formula: see text], ep, and ee colliders Q2 are also compared to pQCD. BFKR searches from all three colliders are discussed. Recent measurements of structure functions and contributions to the parton distribution functions are presented. New measurements of αs are summarized, the world average is αs = 0.1184 ± 0.0031.
