      abstract     = {We present a search for ultrarelativistic magnetic
                      monopoles with the Pierre Auger observatory. Such particles,
                      possibly a relic of phase transitions in the early Universe,
                      would deposit a large amount of energy along their path
                      through the atmosphere, comparable to that of
                      ultrahigh-energy cosmic rays (UHECRs). The air-shower
                      profile of a magnetic monopole can be effectively
                      distinguished by the fluorescence detector from that of
                      standard UHECRs. No candidate was found in the data
                      collected between 2004 and 2012, with an expected background
                      of less than 0.1 event from UHECRs. The corresponding
                      $90\% confidence$ level (C.L.) upper limits on the flux of
                      ultrarelativistic magnetic monopoles range from
                      10$^{-19}$(cm$^2$ sr s)$^{−1}$ for a Lorentz factor
                      γ=10$^9$ to 2.5×10$^{-21}$(cm$^2$ sr s)$^{−1}$ for
                      γ=10$^{12}$. These results—the first obtained with a
                      UHECR detector—improve previously published limits by up
                      to an order of magnitude.},
