Abstract

We analyze the magnetic field of electroweak dumbbells. While the magnetic field of the untwisted dumbbell is given by the usual dipole formula and falls off as 1/r3, dumbbells with twist have a novel twisted magnetic field that only falls off as cosθ/r2 (in spherical coordinates). We comment on the relevance of twisted electroweak dumbbells for understanding the coherence of the magnetic field generated at the electroweak phase transition.
