Abstract: (Elsevier)

The cosmological production of Kaluza-Klein monopoles is discussed. The present monopole-to-entropy ratio is calculated in some simple models with the conclusion that this ratio is unacceptably large unless additional mechanisms for entropy production or monopole annihilation are present.
