Abstract

Radiation and energy loss by monopole in cosmic plasma are investigated in detail. The general formulae for monopole radiation are derived; the Čerenkov power and spectra radiation differing from ones of charged particles are found; and its energy loss in cosmic plasma and metal is obtained. It is pointed out that it is possible to examine monopole in virtue of the Čerenkov radiation in ordinary medium.
