Monopole Decay in a Variable External Field

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2022-06-01 v2 High Energy Physics - Theory

Abstract

The rate of monopole decay into a dyon and an electron in an inhomogeneous external electric field is calculated by semiclassical methods. Comparison is made to an earlier result where this quantity was calculated for a constant field. Experimental and cosmological tests are suggested.
