Detailed Description

Identification of the BSM magnetic monopoles across the simulation.

Author

M. Giacalone - September 2026

The monopole PDG codes are defined in O2MCApplication::AddParticles() and in O2DatabasePDG. They are collected here for better syncing inside the simulation code

To do: add dyons and other monopoles configurations when needed
