Massless monopoles and the moduli space approximation
We investigate the applicability of the moduli space approximation in theories with unbroken non-Abelian gauge symmetries. Such theories have massless magnetic monopoles that are manifested at the classical level as clouds of non-Abelian field surrounding one or more massive monopoles. Using an SO(5) example with one massive and one massless monopole, we compare the predictions of the moduli sp...
متن کاملDuality and Massless Monopoles
Duality arguments suggest the existence of massless magnetic monopoles in gauge theories with the symmetry broken to a non-Abelian subgroup. I discuss how these arise and show how they are manifested as clouds of massless fields surrounding massive monopoles. The dynamics of these clouds is discussed, and the scattering of massless monopole clouds and massive monopoles is described.
متن کاملWrapped D–Branes as BPS Monopoles: The Moduli Space Perspective
We study the four dimensional effective action of a system of D6–branes wrapped on the K3 manifold times a torus, allowing the volume of the internal manifolds to remain dynamical. An unwrapped brane is at best a Dirac monopole of the dual R–R sector field to which it couples. After wrapping, a brane is expected to behave as a BPS monopole, where the Higgs vacuum expectation value is set by the...
متن کاملThe Moduli Space Metric for Well - separated BPS Monopoles
The Lagrangian for the motion of n well-separated BPS monopoles is calculated, by treating the monopoles as point particles with magnetic, electric and scalar charges. It can be reinterpreted as the Lagrangian for geodesic motion on the asymptotic region of the n-monopole moduli space, thereby determining the asymptotic metric on the moduli space. The metric is hyperkähler, and is an explicit e...
متن کاملThe moduli space metric for tetrahedrally symmetric 4-monopoles
The metric on the moduli space of SU(2) charge four BPS monopoles with tetrahedral symmetry is calculated using numerical methods. In the asymptotic region, in which the four monopoles are located on the vertices of a large tetrahedron, the metric is in excellent agreement with the point particle metric. We find that the four monopoles are accelerated through the cubic monopole configuration an...
