Global monopoles in the two-Higgs-doublet-model

We discuss monopoles formed due to the spontaneous breakdown of a global SO(3)HF symmetry within the global two-Higgs doublet model. We explain that the Higgs sector dynamics can be described in terms of two vectors one of which is null, RA=(R0,Ra,R4,R5) for a=1,2,3, with 5 independent components de...
