Abstract:

Inclusive-jet cross sections have been measured in the reaction ep→e+jet+X for photon virtuality Q 2<1 GeV 2 and γp centre-of-mass energies in the region 14217 GeV and -1< jet<2.5. In addition, measurements of double-differential inclusive-jet cross sections are presented as functions of ETjet in different regions of jet. Next-to-leading-order QCD calculations give a good description of the measurements, except for jets with low ETjet and high jet. The influence of non-perturbative effects not related to hadronisation was studied. Measurements of the ratios of cross sections using different jet algorithms are also presented; the measured ratios are well described by calculations including up to O(αs2) terms. Values of α s(M Z) were extracted from the measurements and the energy-scale dependence of the coupling was determined. The value of α s(M Z) extracted from the measurements based on the k T jet algorithm is αs(MZ)=0.1206-0.0022+0.0023(exp.)-0.0035+0.0042(th.); the results from the anti-k T and SIScone algorithms are compatible with this value and have a similar precision. © 2012 Elsevier B.V.

Abstract:

A search for first-generation leptoquarks was performed in electron-proton and positron-proton collisions recorded with the ZEUS detector at HERA in 2003-2007 using an integrated luminosity of 366pb-1. Final states with an electron and jets or with missing transverse momentum and jets were analyzed, searching for resonances or other deviations from the standard model predictions. No evidence for any leptoquark signal was found. The data were combined with data previously taken at HERA, resulting in a total integrated luminosity of 498pb-1. Limits on the Yukawa coupling, λ, of leptoquarks were set as a function of the leptoquark mass for different leptoquark types within the Buchmüller-Rückl-Wyler model. Leptoquarks with a coupling λ=0.3 are excluded for masses up to 699 GeV. © 2012 American Physical Society.
