Finite Energy Electroweak Dyon
read the original abstract
The recent MoEDAL experiment at LHC to detect the electroweak monopole makes the theoretical prediction of the monopole mass an urgent issue. We discuss different ways to estimate the mass of the electroweak monopole. We first present a scaling argument which indicates that the mass of the electroweak monopole to be around 4 TeV. To justify this we construct finite energy analytic dyon solutions which could be viewed as the regularized Cho-Maison dyon, modifying the coupling strengths of the electromagnetic interaction of $W$-boson in the standard model. Our result demonstrates that a genuine electroweak monopole whose mass scale is much smaller than the grand unification scale can exist, which can actually be detected at the present LHC.

Generalizations and UV completions of Cho-Maison monopole
Cho-Maison-like monopoles exist in many gauge theories with electroweak-type symmetry breaking and emerge as effective low-energy descriptions from larger 't Hooft-Polyakov monopoles in UV-complete models like Pati-Salam.

The electroweak magnetic monopole in the presence of KSVZ axion
Incorporating the KSVZ axion modifies the mass and electromagnetic charges of the Cho-Maison electroweak monopole through numerical solutions of the coupled equations with axion-photon interaction.
