Description

A perturbative scheme for investigating the interaction of widely separated 't Hooft-Polyakov monopoles is developed. In the Prasad-Sommerfield limit, the force between oppositely charged monopoles is found to have an inverse square law behaviour, but the force between equally charged monopoles is zero. (Auth.)
