Abstract

Signals of QCD instanton induced processes are searched for in deep-inelastic ep scattering at HERA in a kinematic region defined by the Bjorken scaling variables x>0.001, 0.1<y<0.6 and polar angle of the scattered positron >156 degrees. Upper limits are derived from the expected instanton-induced final state properties based on the QCDINS Monte Carlo model.
