The existence of hypothetical particles called
magnetic monopoles would explain why electric charge comes in integer multiples of the charge of an electron instead of a continuous range of values, Emily Conover reported in «Magnets
with a single pole are still giving physicists the slip» (SN: 2/3/18, p. 10).
For a
monopole with twice the minimum charge, Rajantie and Gould determined that
magnetic monopoles must be more massive than about 10 billion electron volts, going by data from collisions of lead nuclei in the Super Proton Synchrotron, a smaller accelerator at CERN.
Dr Ludovic Jaubert, group leader in the Professor Nic Shannon's Theory of Quantum Matter Unit at the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology Graduate University (OIST) together
with Prof Roderich Moessner from the Max Planck Institute in Dresden gave a theoretical explanation for the observation of double - layer structure of
magnetic monopoles in spin ices.
Each
magnetic monopole comes
with an electric dipole, but for most materials the electric polarization is so small that it can not be seen.
Because each spin of a tetrahedron is also shared
with a neighboring tetrahedron, the creation of
magnetic monopoles spreads around the crystal like a fans» wave in a stadium, forming
monopoles of opposite «
magnetic charge.»
While at Cornell he began collaborating
with colleague Henry Tye on the creation of
magnetic monopoles in the early universe and it was this work which led to his proposal of an inflationary universe.
