The stability of matter composed of electrons and static nuclei is investigated for a relativistic dynamics for the electrons given by a suitably projected Dirac operator and with Coulomb interactions. In addition there is an arbitrary…
Grand unified theories of fundamental forces predict that magnetic monopoles are inevitable in the Universe because the second homotopy group of the order parameter manifold is $\mathbb{Z}$. We point out that monopoles can annihilate in…

Due to the nonlinearity of QED, a static charge becomes a magnetic dipole if placed in a magnetic field. Already without external field, the cubic Maxwell equation for the field of a point charge has a soliton solution with a finite field…
We consider the quantum mechanics of a charged particle in the presence of Dirac's magnetic monopole. Wave functions are sections of a complex line bundle and the magnetic potential is a connection on the bundle. We use a continuum…
Lorentz reciprocity establishes a stringent relation between electromagnetic fields and their sources. For static magnetic fields, a relation between magnetic sources and fields can be drawn in analogy to the Green's reciprocity principle…
The magnetic dipole moment of the $\Delta (1232)$ is calculated in the framework of manifestly Lorentz-invariant baryon chiral perturbation theory in combination with the extended on-mass-shell renormalization scheme. As in the case of the…
We show that in the Maxwell-Chern-Simons theory of topologically massive electrodynamics the Dirac string of a monopole becomes a cone in anti-de Sitter space with the opening angle of the cone determined by the topological mass which in…
Changes in magnetic helicity are often discussed across a variety of fields, from condensed matter physics to early universe cosmology. It is frequently stated that the helicity change is given by the integral of the gauge field strength…
There suggested a modification of the Dirac electron theory, eliminating its mathematical incompleteness. The modified Dirac electron, called dual, is described by two waves, one of which is the Dirac wave and the second dynamically…
Schwinger's idea about the magnetic world of the early Universe, in which magnetic charges (monopoles) and magnetic atoms (g$^{+}$g$^{-}$) could be formed, is developed. In the present-day Universe magnetic charges with energies in the GeV…

Dual Feynman rules for Dirac monopoles in Yang-Mills fields are obtained by the Wu-Yang (1976) criterion in which dynamics result as a consequence of the constraint defining the monopole as a topological obstruction in the field. The usual…
