Kitchu the great monopole owner

University of Hyderabad
Home of Dr T P Radhakrishnan

Radha joined Princeton a few years after us. He was in the group of Prof Zoltan Soos.
I am here visiting them for a day and having a great time talking to Kitchu, his son.
Kitchu believes he can create a magnetic monopole :-)
He wanted to know about blogs and I showed him this site.
The pictures below show Kitchu the great, Radha and Latha and yours truly.

    Kitchu is right! Magnetic monopoles? Not a problem... tell him to look up Bernard Zygelman, Appearance of gauge potentials in atomic collision physics, Physics Letters A, 125(9), 476-481 (1987)
    Abstract: The dynamical equations obtained from the method of perturbed stationary states (PSS) are shown to be formally equivalent to the dynamical equations of a particle with N internal degrees of freedom minimally coupled to U (N) static gauge potentials. Several examples are given that illustrate the appearance of non-abelian and magnetic monopole gauge potentials in simple systems. Advantages of expressing the PSS equations as a gauge theory are discussed.
