Magnetic monopoles -- theory overview

Abstract
I give a theoretical overview of magnetic monopoles, focusing on the physical perspective of monopoles as hypothetical particles rather than as mathematical objects. I argue that monopoles are exceptionally interesting hypothetical particles and discuss the prospects of addressing the question of their existence, and possibly producing them, in particle physics experiments.
