Magnetic Monopoles | ATLAS Results Explained ...
Magnets, those everyday objects we stick to our fridges, all share a unique characteristic: they always have both a north and a south pole. But what if a particle could have only a single north (or south) pole? What if it could be “magnetically charged”? For over a century, physicists have been sear...

Summary: | Magnets, those everyday objects we stick to our fridges, all share a unique characteristic: they always have both a north and a south pole. But what if a particle could have only a single north (or south) pole? What if it could be “magnetically charged”? For over a century, physicists have been searching for these hypothetical “magnetic monopoles”. While the quest continues, ATLAS physicists have placed some of the tightest limits yet on the production rate of magnetic monopoles! Ana Rodriguez Vera explains this result. ... |
