The Amaterasu Cosmic Ray as a Magnetic Monopole and Implications for Extensions of the Standard Model
Paul H. Frampton🇮🇹 · Thomas W. Kephart🇺🇸
Abstract
The Amaterasu cosmic ray particle appears to have come from the direction of the local cosmic void. We take this as evidence that it is a magnetic monopole rather than a proton or nucleus. This in turn strongly suggests physics at high energy is described by a quiver gauge theory.
