BaalChatzaf Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 We are truly living in amazing times. A magnetic monopole has been created with the aid of a Bose-Einstein condensate. Please see No natural magnetic monopole has ever been observed but it is thought they might have existed briefly at the moment of the (so-called) Big Bang. Dirac predicted such particles 80 years ago. He also predicted anti-particles on a purely mathematical basis. Here is one instance where the theoretic physicists got out ahead of the applied physicists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samson Corwell Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 This…is…so…cool! We've found the Higg's boson, we've found magnetic monopoles, and now we need to find the graviton! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far no luck. No one has observed a spin 2 boson yet.... Yoda says: Do not your breath hold until found a boson is, else blue turn you will....
