Description

In order to demonstrate existence of physical charged fermions in the system consisting of a doublet of J=0 massless fermions coupled to the radial electric field in the presence of a point-like SU(2) monopole, it is shown that the system is equivalent to that of a doublet of two-dimensional massless fermions carrying renormalized charges. As a consequence, it follows that charges are quantized if we confine ourselves to Fock space of the free massless fermion fields. (orig.)
