The luminosity of the electron-proton collider, HERA, will be increased by a factor of five during the long shutdown starting September 2000. At the same time longitudinal lepton beam polarisation will be provided for the collider…
HERA, the first electron-proton collider, has been delivering luminosity since 1992. It is the natural extension of an impressive series of fixed-target lepton-nucleon scattering experiments. The increase of a factor ten in center-of-mass…
After more than 15 years, the operation of the world's unique electron-proton collider HERA ended in June 2007. The data collected by the H1 experiment correspond to a total integrated luminosity of about 0.5 fb$^{-1}$. In 2007 dedicated…
A comparison of the potentials of ep and e^+e^-$machines to probe the structure of the photon is performed. In particular, the kinematic reach of a proposed future ep facility, THERA, is compared with those of current colliders, LEP and…
The HERA electron--proton collider has collected 100 pb$^{-1}$ of data since its start-up in 1992, and recently moved into a high-luminosity operation mode, with upgraded detectors, aiming to increase the total integrated luminosity per…

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…
The H1 and ZEUS collaborations have used the HERA I data to search for physics beyond the SM and to test electroweak physics in electron-proton collisions. The new period of data taking (HERA II) has started and first HERA II analyses…
New facilities for particle and nuclear physics research, which will be available due to constructing the TESLA linear electron-positron collider tangentially to the HERA proton ring, are discussed.
HERA is taking data since 1992; after a shutdown in 2000, data taking has restarted in 2002 with a five-fold increase in the luminosity. The first running period is referred to as HERA-I, whereas the second one is referred to as HERA-II. In…
This article summarizes a talk presented at the SLAC Summer Institute 2000, SLAC, Stanford, USA. The HERA ep collider allows the measurement of the proton structure and tests of the Standard Model in a large region of phase space that has…
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.…
From 1992 to 2007, HERA, the first electron-proton collider, operated at cms energies of about 320 GeV and allowed the investigation of deep-inelastic and photoproduction processes at the highest energy scales accessed thus far. This review…
We have considered the physics opportunities of future lepton-hadron colliders and how these opportunities might be realized in a possible polarized eRHIC facility and an e-p collider as part of a staged or final version VLHC. We evaluated…
The analysis of events containing multiple high Pt leptons (electrons and muons) produced in ep collisions has been performed with the H1 and ZEUS detectors at HERA, using the full data sets collected by the experiments in the period…
The HERA collider with its center of mass energy of 318 GeV makes it possible to study a wide range of electroweak physics as well as to search for physics beyond the Standard Model (SM). In this article, recent results, obtained by the two…
A brief overview is given on the physics and future lepton-nucleon collider facilities to explore the domain of high parton densities at low Bjorken $x$, with HERA, the electron-ion collider (EIC) and with THERA - in $ep$, polarised…
Several important and unique measurements, within the standard model and of possible physics beyond it, could be made with {\em polarized HERA} in which both the proton and the electron beams are polarized. With a $\sim$820 GeV proton beam…
Longitudinal polarisation of the lepton beam is a key ingredient to the success of the world's unique e\pmp ring collider HERA. This article aims at providing a brief introduction to the physics motivation for deep-inelastic scattering of…
We give a brief account of some physics topics which could be addressed at a collider consisting of the HERA proton ring and the future e+e- Linear Collider. A few experimental aspects are also discussed.
