Signature Studies of Cosmic Magnetic Monopoles
Abstract
This talk explores the possibility that the Universe may be populated with relic magnetic monopoles. Observations of galactic and extragalactic magnetic fields, lead to the conclusion that monopoles of mass < 1014 GeV are accelerated in these fields to relativistic velocities. The relativistic monopole signatures and features we derive are (i) the protracted shower development, (ii) the Cherenkov signals, (iii) the tomography of the Earth with monopoles, and (iv) a model for monopole airshowers above the GZK cutoff.
