  We present numerical results for chains of SU(2) BPS monopoles constructed
from Nahm data. The long chain limit reveals an asymmetric behavior transverse
to the periodic direction, with the asymmetry becoming more pronounced at
shorter separations. This analysis is motivated by a search for semiclassical
finite temperature instantons in the 3D SU(2) Georgi-Glashow model, but it
appears that in the periodic limit the instanton chains either have
logarithmically divergent action or wash themselves out.
