The analysis now examines the complete H1 data sample, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 478~pb$^{-1}$, which includes 189~pb$^{-1}$ of $e^{+}p$ data (2003-04 and 2006-07) and 170~pb$^{-1}$ of $e^{-}p$ data (2004-06) from the HERA~II phase. A total of 59 events are observed in the data, compared to a Standard Model (SM) prediction of 58.9~$\pm$~8.1. At large hadronic transverse momentum $P_{T}^{X} >$ 25 GeV, a total of 24 events are observed compared to a SM prediction of 15.8~$\pm$~2.5. In this region, 21 events are observed in the $e^{+}p$ data compared to a SM prediction of 8.9~$\pm$~1.5, whereas in the $e^{-}p$ data 3 events are observed compared to a SM prediction of 6.9~$\pm$~1.0. Events with large transverse momentum are observed in both the HERA I and II $e^{+}p$ samples. Further details of the analysis may be found in \cite{isolAndreev2003}. A comparison of the efficiency of the H1 and ZEUS experiments to detect events containing isolated electrons or muons and missing transverse momentum is also presented. \end{titlepage} \newpage \pagestyle{plain} \begin{figure}[p] \begin{center} \includegraphics[width=16cm]{H1prelim-07-063.fig1.eps} \end{center} \begin{picture} (0.,0.) \setlength{\unitlength}{1.0cm} \put (0.2,9.05){\bf\Large Event with $e^{+}+P_T^{\rm miss}$ in the HERA II $e^{+}p$ data } \put (0.2,8.05){\bf\large $\mathbf P_T^e=47$~GeV, $\mathbf P_T^{\rm miss}=47$~GeV} \put (10.22,2.75){\bf\Large $e^+$} \end{picture} \caption{Display of an event with an isolated electron and missing transverse momentum: a candidate for elastic $W$ production in the HERA II $e^{+}p$ data.} \label{fig:electronone} \end{figure} % % % % \begin{figure}[p] \begin{center} \includegraphics[width=16cm]{H1prelim-07-063.fig2.eps} \end{center} \begin{picture} (0.,0.) \setlength{\unitlength}{1.0cm} \put (0.2,9.05){\bf\Large Event with $e^{+}+P_T^{\rm miss}$ in the HERA II $e^{+}p$ data } \put (0.2,8.05){\bf\large $\mathbf P_T^e=37$~GeV, $\mathbf P_T^{\rm miss}=44$~GeV, $\mathbf P_T^{X}=29$~GeV} \put (10.66,2.45){\bf\Large $e^+$} \put (14.04,3.40){\bf\Large $X$} \end{picture} \caption{Display of an event with an isolated electron, missing transverse momentum and a prominent hadronic jet in the HERA II $e^{+}p$ data.} \label{fig:electrontwo} \end{figure} \clearpage \begin{figure}[t] \begin{center} \includegraphics[width=15cm]{H1prelim-07-063.fig3.eps} \end{center} \begin{picture} (0.,0.) \setlength{\unitlength}{1.0cm} \put (0.2,9.05){\bf\Large Event with $\mu^{-}+P_T^{\rm miss}$ in the HERA II $e^{-}p$ data } \put (0.2,8.05){\bf\large $\mathbf P_T^\mu=38$~GeV, $\mathbf P_T^{\rm miss}=51$~GeV, $\mathbf P_T^{X}=24.7$~GeV} \put (13.3,4.4){\bf\Large $X$} \put (12.0,6.95){\bf\Large $\mu^{-}$} \end{picture} \caption{Display of an event with an isolated muon, missing transverse momentum and a prominent hadronic jet in the HERA II $e^{-}p$ data.} \label{fig:muonone} \end{figure} % % % % \begin{figure}[t] \begin{center} \includegraphics[width=15cm]{H1prelim-07-063.fig4.eps} \end{center} \begin{picture} (0.,0.) \setlength{\unitlength}{1.0cm} \put (0.2,9.05){\bf\Large Event with $\mu^{-}+P_T^{\rm miss}$ in the HERA II $e^{+}p$ data } \put (0.2,8.05){\bf\large $\mathbf P_T^\mu=51$~GeV, $\mathbf P_T^{\rm miss}=39$~GeV, $\mathbf P_T^{X}=48$~GeV} \put (12.3,6.1){\bf\Large $X$} \put (11.85,2.15){\bf\Large $\mu^{-}$} \end{picture} \caption{Display of an event with an isolated muon, missing transverse momentum and a prominent hadronic jet in the HERA II $e^{+}p$ data.} \label{fig:muontwo} \end{figure} \clearpage \begin{table}%%%%%[htb] \renewcommand{\arraystretch}{2.1} \begin{center} \begin{tabular}{|r||c|c||c|} \multicolumn{4}{c}{\Large H1 Preliminary, HERA II e$^{+}$p (189~pb$^{-1}$)}\\ \hline { \large Electron }&{H1 Data }&{SM Expectation }&{SM Signal} \\ \hline \hline { \large Full Sample }&{16} &{17.5 $\pm$ 2.5}&{12.3 $\pm$ 2.0} \\ \hline { \large $P_{T}^{X}>$25 GeV}&{ 7} &{ 3.2 $\pm$ 0.6}&{ 2.3 $\pm$ 0.4} \\ \hline \hline { \large Muon }&{ H1 Data}&{SM Expectation }&{SM Signal} \\ \hline \hline { \large Full Sample }&{ 7} &{ 4.6 $\pm$ 0.7}&{ 3.9 $\pm$ 0.6} \\ \hline { \large $P_{T}^{X}>$25 GeV}&{ 4} &{ 2.8 $\pm$ 0.4}&{ 2.3 $\pm$ 0.4} \\ \hline \hline { \large Combined }&{H1 Data }&{SM Expectation }&{SM Signal} \\ \hline \hline { \large Full Sample }&{23} &{22.1 $\pm$ 3.1}&{16.2 $\pm$ 2.6} \\ \hline { \large $P_{T}^{X}>$25 GeV}&{11} &{ 6.0 $\pm$ 1.0}&{ 4.6 $\pm$ 0.7} \\ \hline \end{tabular} \caption{The results of the search for events with isolated electrons or muons and missing transverse momentum in the HERA II $e^{+}p$ data (189~pb$^{-1}$): observed and predicted numbers of events in the electron channel, the muon channel and the sum of electron and muon channels.
