We demonstrate experimentally with a prototype for the first time, that an artificial emergent magnetic unipole hedgehog field in a simply connected three dimensional domain is possible, emulating effectively the Dirac model by simply using a novel permanent magnets' topology and geometrical arrangement in a ring array. Although similar effects were demonstrated by others over the last decade, with these effects usually observed and lasting for a small fraction in time and applied at the quantum or microscopic scale using primary BECs, Skyrmions, Spin Ice and recently Chiral Magnets this was never shown until now and performed at the macro scale and by using normal magnets. The synthetic magnetic unipole ring array prototype progressively twists and steers the magnetic flux into vanishing curl field (i.e. vortex) geometry towards the center of the ring and its air cap. This mere act alone proves enough to create the desired effect and an apparent isolated magnetic unipole region is observed at the center of this magnetic ring array, as we have mapped with a three axis magnetometer and show with the quantum magnetic-optic device flux viewer, the ferrolens. This magnetic unipole is stable at room temperature. Because its macroscopic nature we were able to record for the first time the unique signal signature patterns of magnetic monopoles synthetic or natural, passing through a non-ideal ohmic solenoid shown in Fig.17 which can be used by researches to aid them in the detection of magnetic monopoles.
