    a hypothetical particle with a single magnetic pole instead of the usual two

GCIDE

  1. magnetic monopole

    a hypothetical subatomic particle having only one type of magnetic charge, the magnetic analogue of an electrically charged particle; it has only one magnetic pole instead of the two observed in all common magnetic object; -- it was still not observed as of 1998.

Wiktionary

  1. magnetic monopolenoun

    a hypothetical particle having an isolated north or south pole; the magnetic equivalent of an isolated electric charge

Wikipedia

  1. Magnetic monopole

    In particle physics, a magnetic monopole is a hypothetical elementary particle that is an isolated magnet with only one magnetic pole (a north pole without a south pole or vice versa). A magnetic monopole would have a net north or south "magnetic charge". Modern interest in the concept stems from particle theories, notably the grand unified and superstring theories, which predict their existence. The known elementary particles that have electric charge are electric monopoles. Magnetism in bar magnets and electromagnets is not caused by magnetic monopoles, and indeed, there is no known experimental or observational evidence that magnetic monopoles exist. Some condensed matter systems contain effective (non-isolated) magnetic monopole quasi-particles, or contain phenomena that are mathematically analogous to magnetic monopoles.

  1. magnetic monopole

    A magnetic monopole is a hypothetical particle in particle physics that is an isolated magnet with only one magnetic pole (a north pole without a south pole, or vice versa). In other words, it would possess a net "magnetic charge". Although standard electromagnetic theory predicts their existence, magnetic monopoles have never been observed in nature. Their existence would help explain several unsolved problems in physics, including the charge quantization phenomenon.

  1. Magnetic monopole

    A magnetic monopole is a hypothetical particle in particle physics that is an isolated magnet with only one magnetic pole. In more technical terms, a magnetic monopole would have a net "magnetic charge". Modern interest in the concept stems from particle theories, notably the grand unified and superstring theories, which predict their existence. Magnetism in bar magnets and electromagnets does not arise from magnetic monopoles, and in fact there is no conclusive experimental evidence that magnetic monopoles exist at all in the universe. Effective magnetic monopole quasi-particles exist in some condensed matter systems.
