We show that the two scenarios able to explain the HERA anomaly --- a new leptoquark coupling or a new contact interaction --- predict new contributions to atomic parity violation. These corrections are sufficiently large and different that…
Data from HERA, LEP and the Tevatron, as well as from low energy experiments are used to constrain the Yukawa couplings for scalar and vector leptoquarks in the Buchmuller-Ruckl-Wyler effective model. In the limit of very high leptoquark…
The reaction e+p --> e+X is studied with the H1 detector at Hera. The data cover momentum transfers Q^2 between 200 GeV^2 and 30,000 GeV^2 and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 35.6 pb^(-1). The differential cross section…
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 discuss the possibility of explaining the excess in the cross section at high-Q^2 recently found at HERA in terms of four-fermion effective interactions. To avoid the constraints from low-energy data, we select three special cases in…
We summarize two sets of signals at HERA in supersymmetric models with explicitly broken R-parity. (1) The resonant production of single squarks through an operator $L_1Q_i{ \bar D}_j$. (2) The MSSM production of a squark and a slepton…

The phenomenology and prospects for a discovery of R-parity violating Supersymmetry at HERA are analysed. Emphasis is put on the direct resonant production of squarks by electron-quark fusion and all possible subsequent decay modes of the…

If the recently discovered anomalous events at HERA are due to a scalar leptoquark, then it is very likely to have weak isospin $I = 1/2$. In that case, present precision measurements of the oblique radiative parameters $S$ and $T$ provide…
The HERA ep collider and the experiments H1 and ZEUS operated from 1994-2007. A total integrated luminosity of almost 1 fb^-1 was collected at centre-of-mass energies up to 320 GeV. Results from searches for leptoquarks and squarks, final…
Searches for R-parity violating supersymmetry performed at the H1 experiment are presented. Emphasis is put on searches for squarks, which may be resonantly produced at the HERA $ep$ collider in supersymmetry where R-parity is violated. The…
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…
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…
Various searches for leptoquarks, scalar quarks in $R_p$-violating supersymmetric models, and excited fermions performed by the HERA experiments H1 and ZEUS are reviewed. No evidence for new particle production was observed from data…
The four fermion contact interactions, required to explain the anomalous HERA result, could come from the exchange of new heavy (probably composite) resonances. Depending on their charges and quantum numbers, one gets different scenarios…
