Measures taken to extend the acceptance of the H1 detector at HERA for photoproduction events are described. These will enable the measurement of electrons scattered in events in the high y range 0.85 < y < 0.95 in the 1998 and 1999 HERA run period. The improvement is achieved by the installation of an electromagnetic calorimeter, the ET8, in the HERA tunnel close to the electron beam line 8 m downstream of the H1 interaction point in the electron direction. The ET8 will allow the study of tagged gamma p interactions at centre-of-mass energies significantly higher than those previously attainable. The calorimeter design and expected performance are discussed, as are results obtained using a prototype placed as close as possible to the position of the ET8 during the 1996 and 1997 HERA running.

The forward proton spectrometer is part of the H1 detector at the HERA collider. Protons with energies above 500 GeV and polar angles below 1 mrad can be detected by this spectrometer. The main detector components are scintillating fiber detectors read out by position-sensitive photo-multipliers. These detectors are housed in so-called Roman Pots which allow them to be moved close to the circulating proton beam. Four Roman Pot stations are located at distances between 60 m and 90 m from the interaction point.
The photoproduction of isolated photons has been measured in diffractive events recorded by the ZEUS detector at HERA. Cross sections are evaluated in the photon-proton transverse-energy and pseudorapidity ranges 5<ET(gamma)<15 GeV and -0.7<eta(gamma)<0.9 inclusively and also with a jet with transverse energy and pseudorapidity in the range 4<ET(jet)<35 GeV and -1.5<eta(jet)<1.8, using a total integrated electron-proton luminosity of 374 pb-1. A number of kinematic variables were studied and compared to predictions from the RAPGAP Monte Carlo model. An excess of data is observed above the RAPGAP predictions for z|P(meas)>0.9, where z|P(meas) is the fraction of the longitudinal momentum of the colourless Pomeron exchange that is transferred to the photon-jet final state, giving evidence for direct Pomeron interactions.
Triple differential dijet cross-sections in e p interactions measured with the H1 and ZEUS detectors at HERA are presented. The data are compared to Monte Carlo simulations which differ in their assumptions about photon structure and parton evolution. Effects of the resolved processes of longitudinally polarized virtual photons at HERA are investigated for the first time.
Cosmic Ray and neutrino oscillation physics can be studied by using atmospheric neutrinos. JUNO (Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory) is a large liquid scintillator detector with low energy detection threshold and excellent energy resolution. The detector performances allow the atmospheric neutrino oscillation measurements. In this work, a discrimination algorithm for different reaction channels of neutrino-nucleon interactions in the JUNO liquid scintillator, in the GeV/sub-GeV energy region, is presented. The atmospheric neutrino flux is taken as reference, considering $overset{(-)}{ u_mu}$ and $overset{(-)}{ u_e}$. The different temporal behaviour of the classes of events have been exploited to build a time profile-based discrimination algorithm. The results show a good selection power for $overset{(-)}{ u_e}$ CC events, while the $overset{(-)}{ u_mu}$ CC component suffers of an important contamination from NC events at low energy, which is under study. Preliminary results are presented.
We present a search for excited neutrinos and electrons using all data collected by the H1 experiment at HERA at a center-of-mass energy of 320 GeV with an integrated luminosity of up to 435 pb$^{-1}$. No evidence for excited neutrino or electron production is found. Mass dependent exclusion limits are determined for the ratio of the coupling to the compositeness scale, $f/{Lambda}$. These limits greatly extend the excluded region to higher masses than has been possible in previous searches.
