Abstract

We analyze a non-Abelian extension of the Born-Infeld action for the SU(2) group. In the class of spherically symmetric solutions we find that, in addition to the Gal'tsov-Kerner glueballs, only the analytic dyons have finite energy. The presented analytic and numerical investigation excludes the existence of pure magnetic monopoles of 't Hooft--Polyakov type.
