Spherically symmetric 't Hooft-Polyakov monopoles
Abstract
A general analytic spherically symmetric solution of the Bogomol'nyi equations is found. It depends on two constants and one arbitrary function on radius and contains the Bogomol'nyi-Prasad-Sommerfield and Singleton solutions as particular cases. Thus all spherically symmetric 't Hooft-Polyakov monopoles with massless scalar field and minimal energy are derived.
