TL;DR
This paper reports on searches for exotic particles like contact interactions, leptoquarks, and excited fermions using HERA collider data, including recent e- p results, to explore physics beyond the Standard Model.
Contribution
It presents the first results from e- p data and comprehensive searches for various exotic phenomena at HERA, expanding previous analyses.
Findings
No significant deviations observed from Standard Model predictions
Constraints set on leptoquark masses and couplings
Limits established on contact interaction scales
Abstract
Searches for contact interactions, leptoquark bosons and excited fermions carried out at the HERA ep collider are presented here. The searches are based on ~ 40 pb^-1 of e+ p data per experiment collected at a centre of mass energy ~ 300 GeV. First results on e- p data collected in 1998-1999 are also presented.
