Please give a brief summary of your poster

Now the favored model for monopole production has been Drell-Yan
mechanism. So, this model was used at Tevatron and LEP. In paper
\cite{mon} two-photon production of monopole-antimonopole pair was
suggested. Here, we would like to compare both mechanisms for LHC
condition. It is shown that two-photon production is the leading
mechanism for direct monopole searches at LHC.
