Abstract

The emission of photons by a charge scattered by a monopole is studied. The scattering process is described in eikonal approximation while the photon emission is treated perturbatively. Since the motivation of the investigation is the possibility of using this process as indirect evidence of the existence of monopoles the emission following the scattering from a heavy charge is also studied, with the same formalism. The conclusion is that the two processes would produce a different distribution of photons but that the observation of the photon will not produce a clear evidence; perhaps the joint observation of the scattered charge and of the photon will give a clearer signal.
