H1 and ZEUS Collaborations; Aaron, F D; Abramovicz, H; Abt, I; Adamczyk, L; Adamus, M; Müller, K; Nowak, K; Robmann, P; Straumann, U; Truöl, P (2009). Multi-leptons with high transverse momentum at HERA. Journal of High Energy Physics, (10):013.

## Abstract

Events with at least two high transverse momentum leptons (electrons or muons) are studied using the H1 and ZEUS detectors at HERA with an integrated luminosity of 0.94 fb^{-1}. The observed numbers of events are in general agreement with the Standard Model predictions. Seven di- and tri-lepton events are observed in e^+p collision data with a scalar sum of the lepton transverse momenta above 100 GeV while 1.94+-0.17 events are expected. Such events are not observed in e^-p collisions for which 1.19+-0.12 are predicted. Total visible and differential di-electron and di-muon photoproduction cross sections are extracted in a restricted phase space dominated by photon-photon collisions.
