Abstract: (APS)
A magnetic-monopole solution of a non-Abelian gauge theory as proposed by 't Hooft is studied in curved spacetime. Einstein's equations are solved for the case of a magnetic point charge yielding a metric identical to the Reissner-Nordström metric, except that a nonvanishing cosmological constant is invoked.
