Abstract

We show that the current bounds on the leptoquark couplings imply that if leptoquarks are produced in e p collisions, a significant fraction of them could form a leptoquark-quark bound state. The decay of the bound state has a distinct event shape with rapidity gap. A possible application of this observation in the leptoquark search at HERA is discussed.
