Many explanations for the excess high-Q^2 $e^+p \to e^+X$ events from H1 and ZEUS at HERA have been proposed each with criticisms. We propose a new method to distinguish different models by looking at a new distribution which is insensitive…
I discuss new experimental results reported at this conference that bear directly on three previously reported anomalies: the excess of high Q^2 events at HERA; the excess of W + 1 jet events, relative to W's without jets, in D0 data; and…
Heavy quarks provide a new dimension to QCD, allowing tests of fundamental theory, the nature of color confinement, and the production of new exotic multiquark states. I also discuss novel explanations for several apparently anomalous…
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…
We investigate to which extent an interpretation of the recently observed excess of events in the high $Q^2$ range at HERA in terms of single leptoquark production is compatible with bounds from other experiments.
The prospects of physics beyond the standard model in deep inelastic scattering are reviewed, emphasizing some scenarios which attained attention after the observation of an excess of events with large momentum transfer at HERA.
Recent results from CDF indicate that the inclusive cross section for jets with $E_T > 200$ GeV is significantly higher than that predicted by QCD. We describe here a simple flavor-universal variant of the ``coloron" model of Hill and Parke…
We compare data on the proton structure function from SLAC experiments in the range of x between 0.7 and 0.97 in and near the resonance region with previous empirical fits to Deep Inelastic Scattering and with calculations from parton…
An excess of events with a rapidity gap between jets, over what would be expected from non-diffractive processes, has been observed at HERA. A process based on a perturbative QCD calculation of colour singlet exchange has been added to…
The excess of high-Q2 events recently observed in deep-inelastic positron-proton scattering at HERA has refuelled speculations on physics beyond the standard model, in particular on low-mass leptoquark-type particles. We review the…
If dynamical electroweak symmetry breaking is due to a flavor doublet of color sextet quarks, enhanced electroweak scale QCD instanton interactions may produce a large top mass, raise the $\eta_6$ axion mass, and also explain the excesses…
The uncertainties involved in the calculation of bottom quark cross-sections in deep-inelastic scattering at HERA are studied in different phase space regions. Besides the inclusive bottom quark cross-section, definitions closer to the…
High Q^2 NC and CC cross-sections as measured at HERA can give information on two distinct areas of current interest. Firstly, supposing that all the electroweak parameters are well known, these cross-sections may be used to give…
We discuss the theoretical underpinnings for the extraordinary success of perturbative QCD in the description of HERA data. In particular, we examine recent progress in the understanding of perturbative QCD at small x. We explain the…
The excess in high-Q^2 events at HERA is introduced and possible explanations within the framework of R-parity violating supersymmetry are discussed.
A model-independent search for deviations from the Standard Model prediction has been performed in e+p and e-p collisions at HERA using H1 data. All experimentally measurable event topologies involving isolated electrons, photons, muons,…
Several sources, both experimental and theoretical, subject inclusive jet cross section measurements to large uncertainties. On the experimental side, the energy scale contributes between 10% and 30% uncertainties. On the theoretical side,…
The excess of high $Q^2$ events at HERA reported in the early 1997 by H1 and ZEUS collaborations has become the subject of extensive studies in the framework of several models related to new physics. Here we concentrate on the most…
A review is given of the latest results on jet production and studies of event shape variables in deep inelastic scattering at HERA. Jet cross sections studies for inclusive jet and dijet events are presented and compared to next-to-leading…
I shall review the present status of Tevatron QCD studies, focusing on the production of jets, vector bosons, photons and heavy quarks. In general there is good agreement between the results of current calculational tools and the…
