Abstract
We explore the possibility that the excess neutral and charged current events
seen by the H1 and ZEUS Collaborations at HERA at large x and Q2 could
arise from a hard charm component of the nucleon. While the symmetric
intrinsic charm hypothesis is unable to account for the HERA anomaly, a
non-symmetric charm distribution generated non-perturbatively, for which c
is much harder than c, can produce significant enhancement of cross sections
at the HERA kinematics.

The recent observation by the H1 [1] and ZEUS [2] Collaborations at HERA of an excess
of events at large x and Q2 in e+p neutral current (NC) and charged current (CC) deep-
inelastic scattering (DIS) has prompted numerous speculations about whether one has seen
evidence for physics beyond the standard model. Most explanations have concentrated on
leptoquarks or contact interactions as the source for the anomalously large cross sections
— for a recent overview of the theoretical discussions see Ref. [3]. Using a simple, non-
perturbative model for the intrinsic charm component of the nucleon wave function, we find
a hitherto unnoticed asymmetry, with the c component significantly harder than c, which
has important consequences for the HERA NC and CC events. Confirmation of such an
asymmetry would challenge our understanding of the non-perturbative structure of hadrons
within QCD.
The ZEUS experiment collected only NC data, while H1 observed both NC and CC DIS
events. The evidence for the ex
