Abstract
The search for squarks in R-parity violating supersymmetry in ep collisions at HERA is reviewed. In the full data sample used by the H1 collaboration corresponding to about 0.5 fb-1no deviation from Standard Model predictions was observed and limits were set in phenomenological models. For example, for a R-parity violating coupling of electromagnetic strength λ′11k= 0.3(k ∈ {1, 2}), the mass bound on the corresponding right-handed down-type squark is [Formula: see text]. The results are compared to other searches for supersymmetry. In particular, they are put in context with more recent results from the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). An outlook is given on search opportunities at a future ep collider.
