1 claim

The predicted decay of protons into lighter particles, violating baryon number in grand unified theories; covers experimental search limits (Super-Kamiokande, etc.), theoretical predictions, and processes catalyzing or inducing proton decay, such as the Rubakov-Callan effect of monopoles on nucleons.

Magnetic monopoles cannot catalyze proton decay at a rate that threatens Earth.
