Description
Stefan Nanz investigates the necessity for three
multipole families in classical electrodynamics. He shows that by imposing
symmetry and parity constraints, it is sufficient to deal with only two
multipole families. This implies that the toroidal multipole moments do not
represent an independent multipole family, and they only emerge in the long-wavelength limit.
