Abstract

In the absence of external fields a Reissner–Nordström particle of mass m and charge e for which m and e 2 are small of first order performs run-away motion. Since in particular m 2 < e 2 there is no event horizon associated with this object and so we refer to it as a Reissner–Nordström particle. A Reissner–Nordström particle of mass m and magnetic monopole moment g for which m and g 2 are small of first order behaves in precisely the same way.
