abstract
We report a search for a magnetic monopole component of the cosmic-ray flux in a 95-day exposure of the NOvA experiment's Far Detector, a 14 kt segmented liquid scintillator detector designed primarily to observe GeV-scale electron neutrinos. No events consistent with monopoles were observed, setting an upper limit on the flux of $2\times 10^{-14} \mathrm{cm^{-2}s^{-1}sr^{-1}}$ at 90% C.L. for monopole speed $6\times 10^{-4} < \beta < 5\times 10^{-3}$ and mass greater than $5\times 10^{8}$ GeV. Because of NOvA's small overburden of 3 meters-water equivalent, this constraint covers a previously unexplored low-mass region.

Timing-Based Search for Magnetic Monopoles with the NOvA Detector on the Surface
NOvA's 7.5-year search found zero magnetic monopole candidates and sets a 90% confidence upper limit of 8e-16 cm^-2 s^-1 sr^-1 for monopole speeds near 0.001c and masses above 1e9 GeV.

Charge quantisation, monopoles and emergent symmetry in the Standard Model and its embeddings
The paper maps the global structure of the Standard Model gauge group to 1-form symmetries, derives the allowed electric and magnetic charge lattices for each candidate group, and presents a new anomaly-free model rea...
