The Cho-Maison monopole provides a monopole solution of the electroweak field equations, but possesses an infinite classical energy due to the Maxwell form of the hypercharge sector. Motivated by string-inspired effective field theories, we…
We prove the existence of dark monopole solutions in a recently formulated Yang--Mills--Higgs theory model with technical features similar to the classical monopole problems. The solutions are obtained as energy-minimizing static…
We construct dyon solutions in SU(N) with topological electric and magnetic charge. Assuming a |\Phi|^4-like potential for the Higgs field we show that the mass of the dyons is relatively insensitive to the coupling parameter \lambda…
Using the BPS Lagrangian method, we obtain a distinct set of Bogomolny equations for the Cho-Maison monopoles from the bosonic sector of a regularized electroweak theory. In the limit of $n\rightarrow\infty$ of the permittivity regulator,…
We have found analytical self-dual solutions within the generalized Yang-Mills-Higgs model introduced in Phys. Rev. D 86, 085034 (2012). Such solutions are magnetic monopoles satisfying Bogomol'nyi-Prasad-Sommerfield (BPS) equations and…
In the previous paper, we have shown the existence of magnetic monopoles in the pure $SU(2)$ Yang--Mills theory with a gauge-invariant mass term for the gluon field being introduced. In this paper, we extend our previous construction of…
We examine the issue of monopole annihilation at the electroweak scale induced by flux tube confinement, concentrating first on the simplest possibility---one which requires no new physics beyond the standard model. Monopoles existing at…
The full ``classical" Dirac-Maxwell equations are considered under various simplifying assumptions. A reduction of the equations is performed in the case when the Dirac field is {\em static} and a further reduction is performed in the case…
Electromagnetism would be a ``more unified'' theory if there were elementary magnetic monopoles and/or particles with both electric and magnetic charges (dyons). I discuss the simplest possibilities for the addition of these entities onto…
Three dimensional SO(3) gauged Skyrme models characterised by specific potentials imposing special asymptotic values on the chiral field are considered. These models are shown to support finite energy solutions with nonvanishing magnetic…
In the framework of Einstein-Maxwell-axion theory we consider static spherically symmetric solutions, which describe a magnetic monopole in the axionic environment. These solutions are interpreted as the solutions for an axionic dyon, the…
In this work, we study the one plus half-monopole configuration in Weinberg-Salam model, covering $\phi$-winding number $n$ = 1. We observed that while the finite separation between the one-monopole and the half-monopole becomes larger as…
We consider monopole and dyon classical solutions of the Yang-Mills-Higgs system coupled to gravity in asymptotically anti-de Sitter space. We discuss both singular and regular solutions to the second order equations of motion showing that…
We argue that there may be no intermediate particle physics energy scale between the Planck mass $M_{Pl}\sim 10^{19}$ GeV and the electroweak scale $M_W \sim 100$ GeV. At the same time, the number of problems of the Standard Model (neutrino…
Monopoles in topologically massive gauge theories in 2+1 dimensions with a Chern-Simon mass term have been studied by Pisarski some years ago. He investigated the SU(2) Yang-Mills-Higgs model with an additional Chern-Simon mass term in the…
We apply a generalized field ansatz to describe the spherically symmetric sector of classical solutions of the electroweak theory. This sector contains Abelian magnetic monopoles labeled by their magnetic charge $n=\pm 1,\pm 2,\ldots$, the…

We discuss electroweak constraints on TeV scale extensions of the standard model. To obtain model-independent results, effective theory approach is adopted. Constraints are given on arbitrary linear combinations of a set of dimension-6…
Regular monopole and dyon solutions to the SU(2) Einstein Yang-Mills equations in asymptotically anti-de Sitter space are discussed. A class of monopole solutions are shown to be stable against spherically symmetric linear perturbations.
Monopole solutions in SU(2) Yang-Mills theory which includes spinor fields described by the nonlinear Dirac equation are obtained. It is demonstrated that the energy spectrum of such a system possesses a global minimum whose appearance is…
