Abstract

A model of the galactic centre with magnetic monopole has been presented here. The positron can be produced continuously through magnetic monopoles to induce baryon decay (Rubakov catalytic reaction) and a lot of energy can be released as well. The calculation results show that even if the galactic center contains only a few magnetic monopoles (?=N<subscript>M</subscript>/N<subscript>B</subscript>˜10<superscript>-24</superscript>), this massive object can not collapse into a black hole. This model can explain the observed intensities of the annihilation line and higher energy photons ofE<subscript>?</subscript>>511 keV from the galactic centre.
