Abstract
The MoEDAL experiment at the LHC is optimised to detect highly ionising particles such as magnetic monopoles, dyons and (multiply) electrically charged stable massive particles predicted in a number of theoretical scenarios. MoEDAL, deployed in the LHCb cavern, combines passive nuclear track detectors with magnetic monopole trapping volumes, while spallation-product backgrounds are being monitored with an array of MediPix pixel detectors. The detector concept and its physics reach will be presented. Emphasis will be given to recent MoEDAL results. The potential to search for heavy, long-lived supersymmetric electrically-charged particles is also discussed.
