dc.description.abstract | We consider 3-monopoles symmetric under inversion symmetry. We show that the
moduli space of these monopoles is an Atiyah?Hitchin submanifold of the 3-monopole moduli
space. This allows what is known about 2-monopole dynamics to be translated into results
about the dynamics of 3-monopoles. Using a numerical ADHMN construction we compute the
monopole energy density at various points on two interesting geodesics. The first is a geodesic
over the two-dimensional rounded cone submanifold corresponding to right angle scattering and
the second is a closed geodesic for three orbiting monopoles. | en |
dc.description.sponsorship | We would like to thank Nick Manton for many useful discussions and also Niels Walet, who
inspired our interest in D2 symmetric monopoles. CJH thanks the EPSRC for a research
studentship and the British Council for a Chevening award. | en |
