DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/QMFNoT/5/">T
 opological excitations of a scalar SO(3)-theory</a>\nby Manfried Faber (TU
  Wien) as part of QM Foundations & Nature of Time seminar\n\n\nAbstract\nW
 e discuss a model with only three degrees of freedom in Minkowski space-ti
 me. This model is related to Dirac monopoles\, one can see it as a general
 isation of the Sine-Gordon model from 1D to 3D\, or a modification of the 
 Skyrme model. Starting from a Lagrangian\, the intention of the model is t
 o provide a geometrical description of electromagnetic phenomena. The mode
 l has three topological quantum numbers which can be compared to the prope
 rties of charge\, spin and photon number. We discuss stable solitonic solu
 tions and compare them to the properties of electrons and photons.\n
