Understanding Toroidal Dipoles and Anapols: A Gateway Into Advanced Physics
In a recent seminar, a vibrant discussion unfolded around some complex concepts in physics, namely the toroidal dipole and the anapol. Attendees were invited to engage in the conversation, but surprisingly few were familiar with these concepts. The speaker introduced the anapol, a theoretical construct proposed by the physicist Yakov Zeldovich in 1957, and elaborated on the toroidal dipole, first proposed by researcher Dubovik in 1965 at the Dubna Nuclear Physics Research Center in Russia. These topics serve as the foundation for a deeper exploration into electrodynamics and matter transformation.
