MAGNETIC MONOPOLES should exist if the Higgs boson exists. Classicall, of course, magnetic monopoles are not found because when a bar magent is cut in half, two smaller bar magnets are created—not isolated "north" and "south" poles. Magnetic monopoles could, however, be formed by sweeping magnetic field lines uner the Higgs "rug" (below). The bottom illustration shows a pair of monopoles. Although there have been scattered reports of finding monopoles, none of them has been substantiated to date.
