... However, there is an alternative strategy to find monopoles involving the concept of emergence. The idea of emergence is the combination of many physical entities that can give rise to properties that are either more than or different from the sum of their parts. ...
... "Monopoles had been predicted theoretically, but this is the first time we've actually seen a two-dimensional monopole in a naturally occurring magnet," said co-author Professor Paolo Radaelli from the University of Oxford. "These monopoles are a collective state of many spins that twirl around a singularity rather than a single fixed particle, so they emerge through many-body interactions. The result is a tiny, localized stable particle with diverging magnetic field coming out of it," said co-first author Dr. Hariom Jani, from the University of Oxford. ...
