Why curl of Dirac string attached to Dirac monopole is zero?

So let we have a magnetic field which is $$B_\mu=\frac{q}{2}\frac{x_\mu}{|x|^3}-2\pi q\delta_{3\mu}\theta(x_3)\delta{(x_1)}\delta{(x_2)},\tag{4.65}$$ where $\theta$ is step function and $\delta{(x_\mu)...

Singularity of $B$-field in a Dirac String

I was assigned this question related to Dirac strings: Given a vector potential $\vec{A}= \frac{1-\cos(\theta)}{r\sin(\theta)}\hat{\phi}$, show that there is a singularity in the $B$ field ...
