  2. Electric dipole moment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_dipole_moment

    The electric dipole moment is a measure of the separation of positive and negative electrical charges within a system: that is, a measure of the system's overall polarity. ...

  3. Magnetic moment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_moment

    In electromagnetism, the magnetic moment or magnetic dipole moment is the combination of strength and orientation of a magnet or other object or system that exerts a magnetic field. The magnetic dipole moment of an object determines the magnitude of torque the object experiences in a given magnetic field. When the same magnetic field is applied ...

  4. Chemical polarity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_polarity

    Note that the dipole moments drawn in this diagram represent the shift of the valence electrons as the origin of the charge, which is opposite the direction of the actual electric dipole moment. The bond dipole moment [5] uses the idea of electric dipole moment to measure the polarity of a chemical bond within a molecule. It occurs whenever ...

  5. Force between magnets - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Force_between_magnets

    In the magnetic pole model, the magnetic dipole moment is due to two equal and opposite magnetic charges that are separated by a distance, d. In this model, m is similar to the electric dipole moment p due to electrical charges: =, where q m is the ‘magnetic charge’. The direction of the magnetic dipole moment points from the negative south ...

  6. Anomalous magnetic dipole moment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anomalous_magnetic_dipole...

    The magnetic moment, also called magnetic dipole moment, is a measure of the strength of a magnetic source. The "Dirac" magnetic moment , corresponding to tree-level Feynman diagrams (which can be thought of as the classical result), can be calculated from the Dirac equation .

  7. Gyromagnetic ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gyromagnetic_ratio

    Here the small corrections to the relativistic result g = 2 come from the quantum field theory calculations of the anomalous magnetic dipole moment. The electron g -factor is known to twelve decimal places by measuring the electron magnetic moment in a one-electron cyclotron: [ 3 ] g e = − 2.002 319 304 361 18 ( 27 ) . {\displaystyle g_{\text ...

  8. Moment (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moment_(physics)

    Electric dipole moment, a dipole moment measuring the charge difference and direction between two or more charges. For example, the electric dipole moment between a charge of –q and q separated by a distance of d is (=) Bending moment, a moment that results in the bending of a structural element

  9. Transition dipole moment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transition_dipole_moment

    For example, the transition from a bonding orbital to an antibonding orbital is allowed because the integral defining the transition dipole moment is nonzero. Such a transition occurs between an even and an odd orbital; the dipole operator, μ → {\displaystyle {\vec {\mu }}} , is an odd function of r {\displaystyle \mathbf {r} } , hence the ...
