Scientific paper

Dimopoulos et al. have suggested that a cloud of monopoles orbiting the sun may significantly enhance the local monopole flux relative to the average flux in the galaxy. We have studied this scenario in detail and find that if magnetic fields of strength O(100m16 kG) exist inside the sun, then monopoles passing through the sun can be captured into orbit, leading to a local enhancement of at most O(50m162) (monopole mass=m16 1016 GeV). Monopoles of mass 1016 GeV can also be captured into orbit by passing through Jupiter; this leads to a local enhancement of O(1.1-3).
