Recent experimental data on dijet cross sections in diffractive photoproduction at HERA collider are analysed with an emphasis on QCD factorisation breaking effects. The possible sources of the contradiction in conclusions of H1 and ZEUS…
Strong interaction physics will be ubiquitous at the Large Hadron Collider since the colliding beams consist of confined quarks and gluons. Although the main purpose of the LHC is to study the mechanism of electroweak symmetry breaking and…
Jet production in electron-proton collisions at HERA provides a unique testing ground for Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD). Apart from the determination of the strong coupling constant $\alpha_s$, ep jet data may especially be used to gain…
The excess of high-$Q^2$ events found by H1 and ZEUS at HERA in $e^+p$ deep-inelastic scattering above the Standard Model prediction motivates us to calculate the NLO QCD corrections to the HERA scalar leptoquark (or squark) production…
Recent results on the searches for new physics in ep collisions at HERA using the ZEUS and H1 detectors are presented. No evidence for excited fermions or supersymmetric particles within the context of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard…
We review topical results on diffractive processes from the experiments H1 and ZEUS at the HERA electron-proton collider. Emphasis is placed on the phenomenological and experimental consequences of the discoveries at HERA for the proposed…
The subject of lepton-hadron scattering is discussed from its earliest beginnings, concentrating on what we have learnt from the HERA electron-proton storage ring. A brief selection of the HERA I results most relevant to LHC are discussed.…
This lecture contains a brief introduction to HERA and deep inelastic scattering (DIS), before going on to highlight some of the measurements of the hadronic final state in DIS performed by the H1 and ZEUS collaborations.
New and previously published measurements on the deep inelastic $ep$ scattering cross section by the H1 and ZEUS collaborations are presented. The uncertainties can be significantly reduced by a model independent combination procedure,…
Details are given of the observation by H1 of events containing high P_T leptons in addition to large missing P_T. A closely related ZEUS analysis, including a preliminary measurement of the W production cross section, is discussed and the…

A review is given on recent alpha(s) determinations from the H1 and ZEUS Collaborations. These are based on measurements of jet cross sections, event shape variables, as well as on the observed scaling violation of the structure function…
High-Q^2 NC and CC DIS cross sections have been measured by H1 and ZEUS at HERA. Both NC and CC results based on data taken during the year 1994-2000 are in good agreement with Standard Model expectations. The structure function xF_3 is…
HERA, the only ep collider, operated in the years 1992-2007 at centre-of-mass energies of 300-320 GeV in Hamburg, Germany. Deep inelastic neutral and charged current scattering at HERA provides the possibility to study the structure of the…
The combined HERA-I data set, of neutral and charged current inclusive cross-sections for $e^+p$ and $e^-p$ scattering, is used as the sole input for a next-to-leading order (NLO) QCD parton distribution function (PDF) fit. The consistent…
This contribution covers three recent results on deep-inelastic scattering at HERA: (i) new measurements of the proton longitudinal structure function $F_L$ from H1 and ZEUS experiments, (ii) a dedicated NC cross section measurement from…
The relationship between RHIC and HERA data is explored using the idea of saturation (color glass condensate) as a unifying framework for interpretation. A description of the early stages of a heavy ion collision is given with the RHIC…
Results on Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering at HERA measured by the H1 and ZEUS Collaborations are presented. The cross section, measured for the first time, is reported for $Q^2 > 2 GeV^2$, $30 < W < 120 GeV$ and $|t| < 1 GeV^2$.
We consider $e e q q$ contact interactions as a possible origin of an excess of events above Standard Model predictions in $e^+ p \to e^+ jet$ at high $Q^2$ observed by the H1 and ZEUS collaborations at HERA. The HERA data prefer chirality…
The high energy programme of the HERA collider ended in March 2007. During the whole HERA programme, a combined total integrated luminosity of 1 fb$^{-1}$ was collected by the H1 and ZEUS experiments. In this context, an overview of the…
