Spin and isospin in a gauge theory with monopoles

Description
The mechanism by which systems of spinless bosons with isospin and spinless magnetic monopoles acquire a spin in their ground states is investigated in the context of SU(2) gauge models. Contrary to recent claims, it is demonstrated that isospin degrees of freedom are not converted into spin degrees of freedom. For a spin 1/2 state, solutions are explicitly constructed, exhibiting the isospin degree of freedom. (Auth.)
