This search for Magnetic Monopoles (MMs) and High Electric Charge Objects (HECOs) with spins 0, 1/2 and 1, uses for the first time the full MoEDAL detector, exposed to 6.6 fb^-1 proton-proton collisions at 13 TeV. The results are interpreted in terms of Drell-Yan and photon-fusion pair production. Mass limits on direct production of MMs of up to 10 Dirac magnetic charges and HECOs with electric charge in the range 5e to 350e were achieved. The charge limits placed on MM and HECO production are currently the strongest in the world. MoEDAL is the only LHC experiment capable of being directly calibrated for highly-ionizing particles using heavy ions and with a detector system dedicated to definitively measuring magnetic charge.

  1. The Euler-Heisenberg action for a $U(1)\times U(1)$ dyon quantum electrodynamics

    hep-th 2026-07 accept novelty 6.5 of 10

    One-loop Euler-Heisenberg Lagrangian for U(1)×U(1) dyon QED produces hybrid refractive indices and vacuum birefringence that reduce exactly to ordinary QED when magnetic charge vanishes.

  2. Impact of resummation on the production and experimental bounds of scalar high-electric-charge objects

    hep-ph 2024-12 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    For scalar HECOs, a Dyson-Schwinger resummation raises predicted LHC production cross sections and strengthens 95% CL mass bounds by up to about 30% compared with tree-level estimates.
