Detection of Slow Magnetic Monopole
Abstract
Numerous and all unsuccessful attempts of experimental search for monopole in cosmic rays and on accelerators in high energy particle collisions have been done since the possibility of existence of a magnetic monopole has been surveyed in 1931. Also the searches have been carried out in mica for monopole tracks as well as for relict monopoles, entrapped by ferromagnetic inclusions in iron-ores, moon rock and meteorites. A new method of search for supermassive cosmic and relict monopoles by magnetically ordered film is considered. This approach resembles the traditional method of nuclear emulsion chamber. Apparently the proposed method is particularly attractive for detection of relict monopoles, released from melting iron ore.
