TL;DR: In this paper, the energy calibration of the H1 liquid argon calorimeter modules with electrons from a test beam in the energy range of 3.7 GeV to 80 GeV is presented.
Abstract: Results are presented on the energy calibration of the H1 liquid argon calorimeter modules with electrons from a test beam in the energy range of 3.7 GeV to 80 GeV. The method to determine the calibration for the Hl experiment from these measurements by the use of detailed simulations is described . Various systematic checks of this calibration are given. The calorimeter response is uniform in space within ±1% and linear with energy within ±1%. An average energy resolution of about 11.5%/ E [GeV] is achieved .

TL;DR: In this article, the performances of the H1 liquid argon calorimeter modules for the energy measurements and identification of electrons are studied with test data taken at CERN in the energy range 5 to 166 GeV.
Abstract: The performances of the H1 liquid argon calorimeter modules for the energy measurements and identification of electrons are studied with test data taken at CERN in the energy range 5 to 166 GeV. Various electron identification estimators exploiting global or detailed shower characteristics are studied and compared. The usage of impact position measurements is also discussed. A best combination of robust shower estimators leads typically to π-misidentification probabilities in the range 1.5 to 5.0 × 10−3 at 30 GeV for 95% electron detection efficiency. This further reduces to ∼ 10−4 for these pions to be misidentified as electrons below 25 GeV.

TL;DR: In this paper, a search in the H1 experiment at HERA for scalar and vector leptoquarks, leptogluons and squarks coupling to first generation fermions is presented in a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 425 nb−1.
Abstract: A search in the H1 experiment at HERA for scalar and vector leptoquarks, leptogluons and squarks coupling to first generation fermions is presented in a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 425 nb−1. For masses ranging up to ∼275 GeV, no significant evidence for the direct production of such particles is found in various possible decay channels. At high masses and beyond the centre of mass energy of 296 GeV a contact interaction analysis is used to further constrain the couplings and masses of new vector leptoquarks and to set lower limits on compositeness scales.

TL;DR: In this article, the JADE jet clustering algorithm was used to determine the jet rates for momentum transfer squared up to 500 GeV2 using the H1 detector at HERA.
Abstract: Multi-jet production is observed in deep-inelastic electron proton scattering with the H1 detector at HERA. Jet rates for momentum transfers squared up to 500 GeV2 are determined using the JADE jet clustering algorithm. They are found to be in agreement with predictions from QCD based models.
