Is there any classical/ quantum mechanical proof for the non-existence of magnetic monopoles? Or is it just lack of experimental evidence that has led us to the conclusion that monopoles do not exist, when in fact certain other theories predict their existence/ non-existence?

$\begingroup$ @Lord_Gestalter I feel that this thing is mostly a case of condensed matter oversensationalization ;) $\endgroup$– DanuCommented May 7, 2014 at 9:10
