  A model for composite elementary Standard Model (SM) particles based upon
magnetically bound vorton pairs, briefly introduced here, predicts the
existence of a complete family of magnetically charged particles, as well as
their neutral isotopic partners (all counterparts to the SM elementary
particles), in which the lowest mass (charged) particle would be an
electrically neutral stable lepton, but which carries a magnetic charge
equivalent to 1e. This new particle, which we call a magneticon (a counterpart
to the electron) would be pair produced at all e+e- colliders at an Ecm above
twice its mass. In addition, PP and PPbar colliders should also be able to
produce these new particles through the Drell-Yan process. To our knowledge, no
monopole search experiment has been sensitive to such a low-charged magnetic
monopole above a particle mass of about 5 GeV/c2. Hence, we propose that a
search for such a stable particle of magnetic charge 1e should be undertaken.
We have taken the ATLAS detector at the LHC as an example in which this search
might be done. To this end, we have modeled the magnetic fields and muon
trigger chambers of this detector. We show results from a simple Monte Carlo
simulation program to indicate how these particles might look in the detector
and describe how one might search for these new particles in the ATLAS data
stream.
