Comment on "Monopole production via photon fusion and Drell-Yan processes: MadGraph implementation and perturbativity via velocity-dependent coupling and magnetic moment as novel features"

In a recent study on monopole production [Eur. Phys. J. C (2018) 78: 966], Baines et al added the potential of a magnetic dipole to the Wu-Yang potentials for the Dirac monopole and claimed that this modified Wu-Yang configuration does not affect the Dirac quantisation condition. In this comment, we argue that their claim is incorrect by showing that their modified Wu-Yang configuration leads to an infinite number of quantisation conditions. In their study, they also incorrectly identified the magnetic field of the monopole with the magnetic field of the Dirac string and its attached magnetic monopole.
