This talk is divided in two parts. In the first one we discuss the signals of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model through the production of \tilde{e} \tilde{q}. The second part is devoted to contact terms. The bounds on the mass scale…
HERA, the electron-proton collider, enables to probe the proton with a high resolving power due to the deep inelastic scattering reactions at high $Q^2$ values. In the low $Q^2$ region, one can study the properties of the photon. The large…

The $e^{+}p$ and $e^{-}p$ scattering data recorded at HERA during the recent years offer the possibility to study electroweak effects in $ep$ interactions apparent at high momentum transfers, $Q^{2}$, and to reveal information on the proton…
Properties of the hadronic final state in photoproduction events with large transverse energy are studied at the electron-proton collider HERA. Distributions of the transverse energy, jets and underlying event energy are compared to…
This talk is a rather sceptical review of our knowledge and understanding of deep inelastic scattering at low x (high energy). We show that the well known success of the DGLAP evolution equations in describing of experimental HERA data…
The most important results on subnuclear diffractive phenomena obtained at HERA and Tevtaron are reviewed and new issues in nucleon tomography are discussed. Some challenges for understanding diffraction at the LHC, including the…
Measurements of inclusive jet, dijet and three-jet cross sections in photon-proton interactions are presented. These measurements provide new tests of QCD, constrain the parton densities of the photon, and allow searches for new physics.…
Diffractive reactions involving a hard scale can be understood in terms of quarks and gluons. These reactions have become a valuable tool for investigating the low-x structure of the proton and the behavior of QCD in the high-density…
The quantum statistical parton distributions approach proposed more than one decade ago is revisited by considering a larger set of recent and accurate Deep Inelastic Scattering experimental results. It enables us to improve the description…
It is argued that the QCD dipole picture allows to build an unified theoretical description -based on BFKL dynamics- of the total and diffractive nucleon structure functions. This description is in qualitative agreement with the present…
The results of a measurement of the proton structure function F_2(x,Q^2)and the virtual photon-proton cross section are reported for momentum transfers squared Q^2 between 0.35 GeV^2 and 3.5 GeV^2 and for Bjorken-x values down to 6 10^{-6}…
The strikingly different high energy behaviours of real photoabsorption cross-sections with Q^2 = 0 and the low x proton structure function at large Q^2 are studied from a laboratory frame viewpoint, in which the x and Q^2 dependence…
The H1 and ZEUS collaborations at HERA have searched for signatures of physics beyond the Standard Model with high Q^2 neutral current deep inelastic electron-proton and positron-proton scattering events. No significant deviations from…
For the foreseeable future, the exploration of the high-energy frontier will be the domain of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). Of particular significance will be its high-luminosity upgrade (HL-LHC), which will operate until the mid-2030s.…
The physics case for the operation of high-luminosity proton-nucleus ($pA$) collisions during Run 3 and 4 at the LHC is reviewed. The collection of $\mathcal{O}$(1-10 pb$^{-1}$) of proton-lead ($p$Pb) collisions at the LHC will provide…
Recent structure function results from the H1 and ZEUS Collaborations are presented. The data cover a wide kinematic range of squared four-momentum transfers Q^2, from 0.2 GeV^2 to 30000 GeV^2, and Bjorken x between 5*10^-6 and 0.65. Data…
A review is presented of jet substructure measurements from the H1 and ZEUS Collaborations at HERA. The results presented include tests of perturbative QCD, comparison of the properties of quark and gluon jets, the comparison of the pattern…
