Description
The high precision HERA combined measurement of inclusive deep inelastic cross
sections in neutral and charged current ep scattering, corresponding to a
luminosity of about 1 fb-1, permits searches for new contributions to
electron-quark scattering beyond the Standard Model up to TeV scales. A new
approach to beyond the Standard Model analysis of the inclusive ep data is
presented; simulataneous fits of parton distribution functions and
contributions of "new physics" processes were performed. Results are
presented considering a finite radius of quarks within the quark form-factor
model. The resulting 95% C.L. upper limit on the effective quark radius is
0.43 x 10^-16 cm.
