abstract

We present a new type of spherically symmetric monopole and dyon solutions with the magnetic charge $ 4\pi/e$ in the standard Weinberg-Salam model. The monopole (and dyon) could be interpreted as a non-trivial hybrid between the abelian Dirac monopole and non-abelian 't Hooft-Polyakov monopole (with an electric charge). We discuss the possible physical implications of the electroweak dyon.

  1. The Euler-Heisenberg action for a $U(1)\times U(1)$ dyon quantum electrodynamics

    hep-th 2026-07 accept novelty 6.5 of 10

    One-loop Euler-Heisenberg Lagrangian for U(1)×U(1) dyon QED produces hybrid refractive indices and vacuum birefringence that reduce exactly to ordinary QED when magnetic charge vanishes.

  2. Cosmology-Independent Constraints on Irreducible Magnetic Monopole Background

    hep-ph 2024-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Cosmic-ray collisions with interstellar gas create monopoles that would drain galactic magnetic fields, yielding new cosmology-independent Parker-like bounds on light monopoles.

  3. Self-Gravitating Magnetic Monopoles and Dyons in String-Inspired Models: Structure and Stability

    hep-th 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 5.5 of 10

    Global monopoles plus dilaton/axion/Born-Infeld yield regular self-gravitating magnetic monopoles and dyons with positive ADM mass, finite energy and linear exterior EM stability.

  4. Singularities of Magnetic Monopoles for Dirac and 't Hooft-Polyakov Theories by Pre-potential Method

    hep-th 2025-05 reject novelty 4.0 of 10

    Using a pre-potential C with A = ∇×C, the author claims both Dirac and 't Hooft-Polyakov monopoles have string singularities and exactly zero net magnetic charge.

  5. The electroweak magnetic monopole in the presence of KSVZ axion

    hep-ph 2023-12 unverdicted novelty 4.0 of 10

    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.
