Abstract

Recently, the monopole-antimonopole pair and monopole-antimonopole chain solutions are solved with internal space coordinate system of θ\theta-winding number mm greater than one. However, we notice that it is also possible to solve these solutions numerically in terms of θ\theta-winding number m=1m=1 instead. When m=1m=1, the exact asymptotic solutions at small and large distances are parameterized by a single integer parameter ss. Here we once again study the monopole-antimonopole pair solution of the SU(2) Yang-Mills-Higgs theory which belongs to the topological trivial sector numerically in its new form. This solution with θ\theta-winding and ϕ\phi-winding number one is parameterized by s=0s=0 at small rr and s=1s=1 at large rr.
