On a core instability of 't Hooft Polyakov monopoles
Abstract
We discuss a core instability of 't Hooft Polyakov monopoles in Alice electrodynamics type of models in which charge conjugation symmetry is gauged. The monopole may deform into a toroidal defect which carries an Alice flux and a (non-localizable) magnetic Cheshire charge.
