We calculate contributions to the oblique parameters $S$ and $T$ for leptoquarks and bileptons, and find phenomenological constraints on their allowed masses. Leptoquarks suggested by the neutral and charged current anomalies at HERA can…
In a vector-like extension of the minimal standard model with mirror fermions leptoquarks can be bound states of fermion-mirror-fermion pairs held together by a new strong interaction at the TeV scale. The small couplings of leptoquarks to…
The favoured R-parity violating SUSY scenarios for the anomalous HERA events correspond to top and charm squark production via the $\lambda'_{131}$ and $\lambda'_{121}$ couplings. In both cases the corresponding electronic branching…
Explicit expressions are derived for the oblique parameters $S$ and $T$ in certain extensions of the standard model. In particular, we consider leptoquarks and bileptons, and find phenomenological constraints on their allowed masses.…
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…
I present a concise review of the possible evidence for new physics at HERA and of the recent work towards a theoretical interpretation of the signal. It is not clear yet if the excess observed at large Q^2 is a resonance or a continuum…
The H1 and ZEUS anomalous events are interpreted as being due to the production and the decay of excited leptons $E$, which correspond to spin 1/2 resonances of the first generation lepton doublet ($\nu_e, e$) with W triplet. This…
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…
The excess of high Q^2 events at HERA has been the subject of recent extensive studies in the framework of several models related to new physics. Here, we would like to concentrate on the most promising, from our point of view, model…
The early observation at HERA of an excess of events compared to the expectation from the Standard Model in very short distance $e^+p$ deep-inelastic scattering processes has renewed the interest in the search for new physics which could…
We point out that in extended supersymmetric models such as supersymmetric left-right models, it is possible to have leptoquarks that explain the HERA high $Q^2$ anomaly without giving up R-parity conservation. The leptoquarks belong to…
We examine the phenomenological implications of a 200 GeV leptoquark in light of the recent excess of events at HERA. Given the relative predictions of events rates in e^+p versus e^-p, we demonstrate that classes of leptoquarks may be…
We explore interpretations of the anomaly observed by H1 and ZEUS at HERA in deep-inelastic e^+ p scattering at very large Q^2. We discuss the possibilities of new effective interactions and the production of a narrow state of mass 200 GeV…
The contributions into radiative correction parameters S, T, U from the scalar leptoquarks are calculated in the minimal gauge model with the four-color quark-lepton symmetry. It is shown that the contributions into T and U from the scalar…
A summary is given on the experimental bounds for the couplings and masses of scalar and vector leptoquarks associated to the first fermion generation. We investigate to which extent an interpretation of the recently reported excess of…
Data from HERA, LEP and the Tevatron, as well as from low energy experiments are used to constrain the scale of possible electron-quark contact interactions. Some models are found to describe the existing experimental data much better than…
We investigate a double-spin asymmetry for the semi-inclusive $\Lambda$ hyperon production in the longitudinally deep inelastic lepton-proton scattering, the sign of which can provide us with important information about the strange quark…
Theoretical interpretations of the high-Q^2 events recently observed in deep-inelastic positron-proton scattering at HERA are reviewed. We discuss leptoquarks, squarks with R-parity violating couplings, and contact interactions. Bounds from…
We examine the stop production scenario for the anomalous excess of high $Q^2$ events observed at HERA, by taking into account the constraints coming from the leptoquark search at Tevatron and the atomic parity violation experiments. This…
We re-examine like-sign dilepton signals at the Fermilab Tevatron assuming that the excess high-$Q^2$ events recently seen at HERA are due to scalar resonances such as squarks of $R$-parity-violating supersymmetry. For gluinos in the mass…
