Finite Energy Electroweak Dyon
read the original abstract
We present finite energy analytic monopole and dyon solutions whose size is fixed by the electroweak scale. We discuss two types of solutions. The first type is obtained by regularizing the recent solutions of Cho and Maison by modifying the coupling strength of the quartic self-interaction of $W$-boson in Weinberg-Salam model. The second is obtained by enlarging the gauge group $SU(2) \times U(1)$ to $SU(2) \times SU(2)$. Our result demonstrates that one could actually construct genuine electroweak monopole and dyon whose mass scale is much smaller than the grand unification scale, with a minor modification of the electroweak interaction without compromizing the underlying gauge invariance.

The electroweak magnetic monopole in the presence of KSVZ axion
Incorporating the KSVZ axion modifies the mass and electromagnetic charges of the Cho-Maison electroweak monopole through numerical solutions of the coupled equations with axion-photon interaction.
