Comments on the classical theory of magnetic monopoles
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 24 October 2008
Abstract
The classical theory of electromagnetism with both electric and magnetic charges is discussed. Following Gamblin(l) we proceed from an action principle and investigate the resulting particle equations. A consistent theory in which electrically and magnetically charged particles interact amongst themselves and with each other, without any constraints, is shown to be possible, in contrast to the conclusions of Gamblin. The introduction of constraints is considered.
