Abstract
We consider half-integer topological defects in a spinor Bose-Einstein condensate of exciton-polaritons. We show that they accelerate under the effect of an in-plane effective magnetic field, like regular electric charges in the electric field. The trajectories of these analogues of magnetic monopoles are derived analytically and checked by numerical simulations. We show that these "magnetic charges" propagate at large in-plane velocities and remain stable up to a critical magnetic field, thanks to the unique spin-anisotropy of polariton interactions.
