High Physics at HERA and Searches for New Particles
Preliminary results from H1 and ZEUS on Deep Inelastic Scattering (DIS) at
high momentum transfer squared are presented. Used are all available data accumulated by the H1 and ZEUS experiments between 1994 and 1997,
corresponding to integrated luminosities of and ,
respectively. The anomalies observed at high in the 1994 to 1996 data
still remain, though with less significance. Since this high domain
represents a new frontier in DIS, the same data are used to search for new
particles possessing direct couplings to lepton-quark pairs. Assuming that the
slight excess of events observed in Neutral Current DIS is due to a statistical
fluctuation, preliminary limits on the production of leptoquarks and of squarks
in R-parity violating MSSM are presented.Comment: 14 pages, 12 figures, uses iopart style files, contribution to the
