We present a strategy for searching for heavy neutrinos at the Large Hadron Collider using the MoEDAL Experiment's MAPP detector. We hypothesize the heavy neutrino to be a member of a fourth generation lepton doublet, with the electric…

The possibility of existence of a magnetic monopole has been surveyed by P. Dirac even in 1931, and then from the point of view of the modern theory by A.M. Polyakov and G.~ 'tHooft in 1974. Numerous and unsuccessful attempts of…

Magnetic monopoles are beyond standard model particles, predicted by Grand Unified Theories (GUTs) to be created during the early universe. At typical masses of the GUT-scale - above $10^{14}$ GeV - these particles would move at…

Contrary to the electric charge that generates the electric field, magnetic charge (namely magnetic monopoles) does not exist in the elementary electromagnetism. Consequently, magnetic flux lines only form loops and cannot have a source or…

We present a preliminary study on the possibility to search for massive long-lived electrically charged particles at the MoEDAL detector. MoEDAL is sensitive to highly ionising objects such as magnetic monopoles or massive (meta-)stable…

We return to further examination of the need for the existence of magnetic monopoles based on the decades old derivation [Sherman Frankel, Amer. Jour. of Physics, 44, 7, 683-6 1976], of both the monopole-charge force, vec(F) = eg(vec(r) *…

Earlier investigations showed local minima in the monopole-antimonopole potential in U(1) gauge theory on the lattice. In this paper we localize monopoles of Monte-Carlo configurations. A statistical analysis of localization measurements…

We investigate the presence of magnetic monopoles in a model that extends the non Abelian model originally studied by 't Hooft and Polyakov with the inclusion of an extra neutral field. The investigation includes modifications of the…

The Standard Model (SM) of the microcosm provides an excellent description of the phenomena of the microcosm, with the triumph of the discovery of the Higgs boson. There are many reasons, however, to believe that the SM is incomplete and…

Monopoles play a center role in gauge theories and topological matter. There are two fundamental types of monopoles in physics: vector monopoles and tensor monopoles. Examples of vector monopoles include the Dirac monopole in 3D and Yang…

Dirac showed that the existence of one magnetic pole in the universe could offer an explanation of the discrete nature of the electric charge. Magnetic poles appear naturally in most Grand Unified Theories. Their discovery would be of…

The search for physics beyond the Standard Model motivates new high-energy accelerators, which will require high luminosities in order to produce interesting new heavy particles. Using the Higgs boson and supersymmetry as examples, we…

In this work we investigate the presence of magnetic monopoles that engender multimagnetic structures, which arise from an appropriate extension of the $\rm{SU(2)}$ gauge group. The investigation is based on a modified relativistic theory…

Methods and ideas to search for new phenomena at existing and future collider facilities like LEPII and the LHC are analysed. Emphasis is put on the experimental aspects of discovery strategies for the Higgs Boson of the Standard Model.…

Magnetic monopole solutions naturally arise in the context of spontaneously broken gauge theories. When the unbroken symmetry includes a non-Abelian subgroup, investigation of the low-energy monopole dynamics by means of the moduli space…

Existing theoretical and observational constraints on the abundance of magnetic monopoles are limited. Here we demonstrate that an ensemble of monopoles forms a plasma whose properties are well determined and whose collective effects place…

Magnetic monopoles have provided a rich field of study, leading to a wide area of research in particle physics, solid state physics, ultra-cold gases, superconductors, cosmology, and gauge theory. So far, no true magnetic monopoles were…

We in the physics community expect the LHC to uncover new physics in the next few years. The character and energy scale of the new physics remain unclear, but it is likely that data from the LHC will need to be complemented by information…

After a brief introduction to the theoretical basis of the Higgs mechanism for generating the masses of elementary particles, the experimental searches for Higgs particles will be summarized, from bounds at LEP to inferences for LHC. The…

Magnetic Monopole is a cosequence of the existence of the duality symmetry in electromagnetics. Although, no conclusive experimental evidence have so far been found but the subject is still of much interest to physicist. The theory of…
