Abstract

Using the 27 kG magnetic field produced by a superconducting solenoid we have searched for trapped magnetic monopoles in a magnetite sample from North China. We hvve scanned the nuclear emulsion both for low ionizing tracks and heavily ionizing tracks, and polycarbonate track detectors for heavily ionizing tracks of magnetic monopoles. We obtained a 90% confidence level upper limit of 1.8×10 −26 monopoles per nucleon in the magnetite sample.
