Berry magnetic field appears as a response to adiabatic changes of the parameters appearing in the Hamiltonian. This quantity is involved in determining the Chern numberm of the system and, in general, has a non-zero divergence (due to monopoles appearing in the parameter space). Is there an electric analog? How are the Berry-Maxwell equations modified and what happens when there are monopole currents around?
