Previously published and as yet unpublished QCD results obtained with the ALEPH detector at LEP1 are presented. The unprecedented statistics allows detailed studies of both perturbative and non-perturbative aspects of strong interactions to be carried out using hadronic Z and tau decays. The studies presented include precise determinations of the strong coupling constant, tests of its avour independence, tests of the SU(3) gauge structure of QCD, study of coherence eects, and measurements of single-particle inclusive distributions and two-particle correlations for many identied baryons and mesons.

(To be submitted to Nucl. Instr. Meth. A) described. electrons, muons, neutrinos (from missing energy), charged hadrons, ·rr°'s and V°'s is of the detector is its ability to identify particles; the performance in identification of hadrons, and the accuracy obtained in energy and angle is given. An essential property of charged tracks is specified. Calorimeters are used to measure photons and neutral accuracy of the tracking detectors to measure the impact parameter and momentumThe performance of the ALEPH detector at the LEP e+e' collider is reviewed.
