| Abstract | Using the result that an electric charge - magnetic charge system carries an internal field angular momentum of eg/4� we arrive at two restrictions on magnetic monopoles via the requirement of angular momentum quantization and/or conservation. First we show that magnetic charge should scale in the opposite way from electric charge. Second we show that free, unconfined monopoles seem to be inconsistent with quantized angular momentum when one considers a magnetic charge in the vicinity of more than one electric charge. |
