摘要：

An improved limit on the flux of magnetic monopoles in the vicinity of the solar system is obtained, assuming that monopoles strongly catalyze nucleon decay (the Rubakov-Callan effect). Flux limits are presented for monopole velocities from 10(-5)c to 10(-1)c and for monopole-nucleon cross sections between 10(-27) cm2 and 10(-21) CM2. For a representative velocity beta almost-equal-to 10(-3) , and cross section sigma almost-equal-to 10(-24) CM2, We obtain a limit F(m) < 2.7 x 10(-15) Cm-2 sr-1 sec-1 and for sigma almost-equal-to 10(-25) cM2, F(m) < 1.0 X 10(-15) CM-2 sr-1 sec-1 at 90% C.L.
