### A search for excited fermions in e(+)p collisions at HERA

Abstract:

A search for excited quarks is performed using the full e ± p data sample collected by the H1 experiment at HERA, corresponding to a total integrated luminosity of 475   pb - 1. The electroweak decays of excited quarks q * → q γ, q * → q Z and q * → q W with subsequent hadronic or leptonic decays of the W and Z bosons are considered. No evidence for first generation excited quark production is found. Mass dependent exclusion limits on q * production cross sections and on the ratio f / Λ of th...
