Search for Highly-Ionizing Particles in pp Collisions at the LHC's Run-1 Using the Prototype MoEDAL Detector
B. Acharya, J. Alexandre, P. Benes +68
A search for highly electrically charged objects (HECOs) and magnetic monopoles is presented using 2.2 fb-1 of p - p collision data taken at a centre of mass energy (ECM) of 8 TeV…

First experimental search for production of magnetic monopoles via the Schwinger mechanism
B. Acharya, J. Alexandre, P. Benes +64
Schwinger showed that electrically-charged particles can be produced in a strong electric field by quantum tunnelling through the Coulomb barrier. By electromagnetic duality, if ma…
