Dyonic black holes: The theory of two electromagnetic potentials

In the present paper we argue that the dyonic black hole spacetimes must be studied within the theory of two electromagnetic potentials, and we use the dyonic Reissner-Nordstr\"om solution to demonstrate that the field of the monopole magnetic charge is correctly described by the $t$-component of the dual electromagnetic potential. As a result, the Dirac string associated with the $\varphi$-component of the usual electromagnetic 4-potential becomes just a mathematical object, without any physical content, that arises in some calculations when one employs unsymmetrical representations of the electromagnetic field. We use three different, though equivalent, forms of the electromagnetic energy-momentum tensor to calculate the Komar mass of the Reissner-Nordstr\"om black hole, and in one case the Dirac string is linked to the magnetic charge, in another to the electric charge, while the third, symmetrical case, is string-free.
