Experimental results on QCD measurements obtained in recent
analyses and based on data collected with CDF Detector from the Run 1b
Tevatron running cycle are presented. The scope of the talk includes major
QCD topics: a measurement of the strong coupling constant alpha_s, extracted
from inclusive jet spectra and the underlying event energy contribution to a
jet cone. Another experimental object of QCD interest, prompt photon
production, is also discussed and the updated measurements by CDF of the
inclusive photon cross section at 630 GeV and 1800 GeV, and the comparison
with NLO QCD predictions is presented.
