[NewCandle] Image magnetic monopole charge

[Keith Nagel]

So Nick, that paper is claiming Bi2Te3 potentially supports magnetic
monopoles.
These would be formed by the presence of electric charge near the surface
of the material. I'm thinking that a very simple experiment would involve
depositing a metal film on the Bi2Te3, charging it to a high potential,
and looking for the presence of a magnetic field. _Any_ field would be
anomalous. A single charge should create a monopolar magnetic field.
Makes me wonder if that force anomaly you were seeing could be related
to monopoles accumulating in the material???

I remember our discussions about the force anomaly, but forgot what
material made it work. Thanks for reminding me.
