- Descripción
- An Abelian gauge model, with vector and 2-form potential fields linked by a topological mass term mixing the two Abelian factors, is shown to exhibit Dirac-like magnetic monopoles in the presence of a matter background. In addition, considering a `non-minimal coupling' between the fermions and the tensor fields, we obtain a generalised quantisation condition that involves, among others, the topological mass parameter. Also, it is explicitly shown that 1_loop (finite) corrections do not shift the value of such a mass parameter.
