It is demonstrated, owing to the nonlinearity of QED, that a static charge placed in a strong magnetic field\ $B$\ is a magnetic dipole (besides remaining an electric monopole, as well). Its magnetic moment grows linearly with $B$ as long…
We propose that the only possible realization of a magnetic pole is emergent, it being an artefact of a torsion defect in a curved spacetime. This special phase is characterized by a class of degenerate metric spacetime solutions of first…
