Can you refer me to literature of those subjects? I must admit that it seems a little bit over the top, because what I read involved more basic concepts. As I wrote at my post, I would have assumed that some sort of symmetry of the charge distribution of the nucleus leads to its electric dipole...

To my understanding it is more simple than that. The nucleus is considered as merely a charge distribution and the electrostatic energy of the interaction between the nucleus and the electron is approximated using multipole expansion. What I do not understand is, what are the assumptions that...

Summary: Why is the electric dipole moment of the nucleus of an atom equal zero? Summary: Why is the electric dipole moment of the nucleus of an atom equal zero? I read about the hyperfine interactions that cause the altering of the energy levels of the nuclues of an atom. Under the...

I study electromagnetism and I got to the chapter about special relativity, in this chapter my professor (since we are not using the electromagnetic tensor in this course) used a specific case to show that the electric field parallel to the velocity of a frame of reference stay the same in both...
