Please help me understand this paragraph:
"In its proton-proton collider, the MoEDAL team found no magnetic monopoles and set a lower limit of 3,900 times the proton mass (3.9 TeV) on magnetic monopoles with 1–10 times the Dirac charge, g_D. In the Schwinger effect experiment, the team set the strongest-to-date lower limit of 80 proton masses on monopoles with a magnetic charge of 2–45 g_D."
By "lower limit", I would understand that the actual mass is expected to be higher than that. But, then the "strongest-to-date" limit, 80, comes in lower than the MoEDAL's 3,900. Granted that these are for different charges, but there is considerable overlap, 2 to 10 Dirac charges.
What gives?
