The Effect of a Magnetic Pole on the Energy Levels of a Hydrogen-Like Atom
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 24 October 2008
Extract
The possible existence of a magnetic pole has been under discussion for many years. Dirac worked out in detail an electro-dynamics in which a single magnetic pole is assumed to exist (1,2). He has shown that the existence of such a pole leads naturally to the quantization of charge, the magnetic pole strength g and the electric charge e being related by the equation where p is an integer, h is Planck's constant divided by 2π, and c is the velocity of light.
