Abstract
Flux limits for monopoles in the primary cosmic radiation have been derived on the basis of muon-poor air-shower data and the analog of inverse Compton scattering of monopoles from universal microwave background photons. Calculations on both galactic and universal scales were performed. The resulting limits are generally smaller than existing experimental limits and are applicable to strongly interacting monopoles.Keywords
