Elusive magnetic monopole reported
Science • October 2009 • Views: 393
If verified, the existence of magnetic monopoles is perhaps one of the most important developments in magnetism from a fundamental physics point of view. One of the major gaps in our understanding of magnetism is why we haven’t observed magnetic monopoles (like electrons are electronic monopoles). Until now I suppose. I was a scientist in the field of thin film magnetism for many years and this is truly an exciting find!
