Results on jet measurements in neutral current deep inelastic scattering at HERA are presented. The low-$x_{Bj}$ and low-$Q^2$ region is explicitly investigated using forward jet production and the azimuthal asymmetry between jets in dijet…
Events with a final-state proton carrying a large fraction of the proton-beam momentum, x_L>0.6, and the square of the transverse momentum p_T^2 <0.5 GeV^2, have been studied in e^+p collisions with the ZEUS detector at HERA. Data with…
A search for excited neutrinos, the analysis of multi-lepton final states, a search for doubly charged Higgs production and a general search for high-Pt phenomena at HERA are reported. The searches use data samples of ep collisions with a…
