Physics at HERA - Present Prospects from a Theorist's Point of View

摘要

The physics at HERA is discussed in the framework set by present knowledge and speculations of particle theory. After a brief summary of the basic processes investigable in ep-collisions, I illustrate the potential of HERA in testing the standard model and probing new physics with the focus on particularly important and promising topics.
