Scientific paper

We simulated the response of the AMANDA-B10 detector to the passing through of relativistic magnetic monopoles (0:8 1). The Cherenkov light output is 8300 times as high as for muons yielding a correspondingly large detection area. The background was simulated as well, and methods were developed to extract the predicted signal. A search was performed using the AMANDA-B10 data of 1997 and an upper limit of 1:55 10,16 =cm2 s sr for = 1 on the monopole flux was calculated.
