Electromagnetic sources beyond common multipoles

Electromagnetic sources beyond common multipoles
Electromagnetic sources beyond common multipoles

The complete dynamic multipole expansion of electromagnetic sources contains more types of multipole terms than is conventionally perceived. The toroidal multipoles are one of the examples of such contributions that have been widely studied in recent years. Here we inspect more closely the other type of commonly overlooked terms known as the mean-square radii. In particular, we discuss both quantitative and qualitative aspects of the mean-square radii and provide a general geometrical framework for their visualization. We also consider the role of the mean-square radii in expanding the family of nontrivial nonradiating electromagnetic sources.

Abstract

The complete dynamic multipole expansion of electromagnetic sources contains more types of multipole terms than is conventionally perceived. The toroidal multipoles are one of the examples of such contributions that have been widely studied in recent years. Here we inspect more closely the other type of commonly overlooked terms known as the mean-square radii. In particular, we discuss both quantitative and qualitative aspects of the mean-square radii and provide a general geometrical framework for their visualization. We also consider the role of the mean-square radii in expanding the family of nontrivial nonradiating electromagnetic sources.
