Understand

We study a gauge theory model where there is an intermediate symmetry breaking to a meta- stable vacuum that breaks a simple gauge group to a U (1) factor.

Such models admit the existence of meta-stable magnetic monopoles, which we dub false monopoles.
We prove the existence of these monopoles in the thin wall approximation.
We determine the instantons for the collective coordinate that corresponds to the radius of the monopole wall and we calculate the semi-classical tunneling rate for the decay of these monopoles.
