AbstractDirac has suggested that the quantization of electric charge could be explained by the existence of magnetic monopoles. In view of this hypothesis, this paper investigates what theoretically would be the behaviour of such monopoles in a Wilson cloud chamber. The treatment, which for simplicity is basically classical, closely follows Bohr's work on the decrease of velocity and ionization properties of α- and β-particles, and expressions are derived for the rate of decrease of energy and the number of ion-pairs produced per centimetre by a monopole passing through a gas. These expressions are then discussed with particular reference to the case of heavy particles, and the main differences between them and the corresponding expressions for α-particles both as to range and ionization are indicated; these differences can be summarized by saying that monopoles have much shorter paths, but create many more ion-pairs per centimetre than α-particles. Also, the very sharp increase in the ionization at the end of the path of an electric particle is missing, the ionization for the monopole decreasing to a small amount near the end of the path.

Using the formalism of Weitzenböck induced matter theory (WIMT) we calculate the gravito-magnetic charge on a topological string, which is induced through a foliation on a five-dimensional (5D) gravito-electromagnetic vacuum defined on a 5D Ricci-flat metric, which produces symmetry breaking on an axis. We obtain the resonant result that the quantized charges are induced on the effective four-dimensional hypersurface. This quantization describes the behavior of a test gravito-electric charge in the vicinity of a point gravito-magnetic monopole, both geometrically induced from a 5D vacuum. We demonstrate how gravito-magnetic monopoles would decrease exponentially during the inflationary expansion of the universe.

Dyon is a hypothetical particle in high energy physics that carries simultaneously both electric and magnetic charge. A dyon with zero electric charge is referred to a magnetic monopole.  The paper, reports a simple reformulation of Maxwell equations for dyon in arbitrary media. The Lorentz, Coulomb gauge conditions and the wave equations of dyon in arbitrary media are derived in a simple and compact manner.

We study spherically symmetric finite energy solutions of two Higgs–Chern–Simons-Yang–Mills–Higgs (HCS-YMH) models in 3+1 dimensions, one with gauge group SO(5) and the other with SU(3). The Chern–Simons (CS) densities are defined in terms of both the Yang–Mills (YM) and Higgs fields and the choice of the two gauge groups is made so that they do not vanish. The solutions of the SO(5) model carry only electric charge and zero magnetic charge, while the solutions of the SU(3) model are dyons carrying both electric and magnetic charges like the Julia–Zee (JZ) dyon. Unlike the latter, however, the electric charge in both models receives an important contribution from the CS dynamics. We pay special attention to the relation between the energies and charges of these solutions. In contrast with the electrically charged JZ dyon of the Yang–Mills–Higgs (YMH) system, whose mass is larger than that of the electrically neutral (magnetic monopole) solutions, the masses of the electrically charged solutions of our HCS-YMH models can be smaller than their electrically neutral counterparts in some parts of the parameter space. To establish this is the main task of this work, which is performed by constructing the HCS-YMH solutions numerically. In the case of the SU(3) HCS-YMH, we have considered the question of angular momentum and it turns out that it vanishes.
