Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We describe a study of the underlying event in jet and minimum bias events using data from the CDF detector. The underlying event contribution to the jet energy has been calculated in jet events and compared to the results of two Monte Carlo programs: Herwig and Pythia. The analysis has been carried out at two different center of mass energies: (square root)s = 1800 and 630 GeV. For most observables, good agreement is obtained with at least one of the Monte Carlo programs. Neither program describes all features of the data.
