| Abstract: | It is shown that there exists the possibility of producing bursts of magnetic monopoles using properties of largely ionized condensed media, where electron accumulations or clusters are used. A spontaneous gauge symmetry breaking occurs when the electrons, constituting the cluster, are sufficiently close together to open the way to the creation of a topological defect, which is known to have in this case the properties of a magnetic monopole. Those properties of magnetic monopoles, grounded in this way, in the context of quantum theory of fields, are not contradictory with the initial concept proposed by Dirac, but conversely complete this model, showing the possibility of producing monopoles and to observe them in laboratory with relatively low energy devices. |
