High-PT leptons and W production at HERA
نویسندگان
چکیده
Details are given of the observation by H1 of events containing high-PT leptons in addition to large missing PT. A closely related ZEUS analysis, including a preliminary measurement of the W production cross section, is discussed and the two experiments are compared. Some possible non-standard model sources for the events are considered.

Isolated Leptons and Missing PT at HERA
The search for events containing isolated leptons (electrons or muons) and missing transverse momentum produced in ep collisions is performed individually and in a common phase space with the H1 and ZEUS detectors at HERA in the period 1994–2007. The analysed H1+ZEUS data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 0.97 fb, and composes of the complete high energy data from the HERA progr...
متن کاملIsolated leptons with missing transverse momentum and search for single top production
Recent results of searches for production of isolated leptons in events with large missing transverse momentum in e±p collisions at HERA are reviewed. The H1 collaboration observes an excess of these events over the, W-production dominated, Standard Model (SM) predictions in e+ p collisions, this excess is not confirmed by ZEUS. In e−p collisions the rate of these events observed by the H1 coll...

e ± p collisions with the H1 and ZEUS detectors at the HERA collider. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of ∼ 1 fb, representing the full HERA high-energy data set. The yields of single, diand tri-lepton events are measured and compared to the Standard Model predictions, looking for possible deviations. No significant discrepancy with respect to the Standard Model expectati...
متن کاملEvents with Isolated Leptons and Missing Transverse Momentum at Hera
Events with isolated leptons and missing transverse momentum are searched for in electron– or positron–proton collisions at HERA by the H1 and ZEUS experiments. Such events may be explained within the Standard Model by W boson production, followed by leptonic decay. The analysis performed including HERA I and the recently collected data at HERA II results in clear evidence ofW production. Howev...
