Abstract

General properties of monopole-fermion and dyon-fermion bound states are investigated, for the case of Dirac monopoles and their dyon analogues. The attractive forces that lead to bound states are due to the interaction of a fermion anomalous magnetic moment with the monopole magnetic field and the additional Coulomb interaction in the dyon case. Detailed numerical results are presented.
