Abstract
Rotational covariance in the monopole sector of the SU(2) Yang-Mills model with a triplet of Higgs scalars and the possible addition of fermions is examined. Ansätze about the leading-order behavior of monopole-monopole matrix elements are shown to be consistent with rotational symmetry. Spin identification of monopole states is done for all cases.Keywords
