摘要
The experiment has been performed for both fast (beta >= 0.4) and slow (2 x 10(-4) <= 8 <= 10(-1)) Monopoles. In the velocity range beta >= 0.4, we made use of "the cascade trigger" (large energy deposition in the facility), the time-of-flight method was used for 10(-4) <= beta <= 10(-1) range. No candidate for the monopole was obtained during 35400 hours and 127630 hours of live time respectively.
