Abstract

We construct sequences of axially symmetric multisphaleron solutions in SU(2) Yang-Mills-dilaton theory. The sequences are labelled by a winding number n>1n>1. For n=1n=1 the known sequence of spherically symmetric sphaleron solutions is obtained. The solutions within each sequence are labelled by the number of nodes kk of the gauge field functions. The limiting solutions of the sequences correspond to abelian magnetic monopoles with nn units of charge and energy EnE \propto n.
