condition that the existence of one magnetic monopole forces all electric charges to be integer multiples of a basic unit.

In particle physics, Dirac quantization condition refers to condition that the existence of one magnetic monopole forces all electric charges to be integer multiples of a basic unit. This meaning comes from Dirac (1931) in Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series A, Containing Papers of a Mathematical and Physical Character.[1]
