Description
We investigate the Cho-Maison magnetic monopole in the presence of gravity. Unlike 't Hooft-Polyakov monopole, this hypothetical particle is a topological offspring of the ElectroWeak theory with a mass estimated around 5-7 TeV. Our goal is to study solutions within a large family of extended Electrowek models coupled minimally or non-minimally to gravity and see what kind of space-time emerges and what are the limitations on the monopole's mass. We focus on exact solutions in the BPS limit and on a novel notion of duality.
