A monopole metric

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

We calculate explicitly in terms of complete elliptic integrals the metric on the moduli space of tetrahedrally-symmetric, charge four, SU(2) monopoles. Using this we verify that in the asymptotic regime the metric of Gibbons and Manton is exact up to exponentially suppressed corrections.
