On Massive Vector Bosons and Abelian Magnetic Monopoles in D=(3+1): a Possible Way to Quantise the Topological Mass Parameter

Winder A. Moura-Melo, N. Panza, J. A. Helayel-Neto

An Abelian gauge model, with vector and 2-form potential fields linked by a topological mass term that mixes the two Abelian factors, is shown to exhibit Dirac-like magnetic monopo…
