11 Magnetic charge as a surface charge? Magnetic charge: d F = 0 F = db What about dyons? Action principle?

12 Thermodynamics for RN RN dyon: infer thermodynamics for parameter variations from purely electric case using duality Problem: excluded in action based derivations of 1st law for arbitrary variations because of string singularity and absence of magnetic potential

23 Dynamical sources & Dirac strings duality requires both electric and magnetic sources action principle for charged point particles: Dirac string monopole field described by singular potential replaced by thin solenoid with no magnetic charge

24 Dynamical sources & Dirac strings + dynamical string Felsager Goddard & Olive action principle: NB: asymmetric treatment of both types of sources
