Abstract:
The multipole expansion of a charged current in multipolar moments with highlighting the anapolar moment is stated in the work of Ya. B. Zel’dovich [1] were the weak interaction parity nonconservation was related to this moment. In the electromagnetic interaction, the work of Dubovik and Tugushev [2] and other authors [3-5] are notable. The method can lead to useful description of the vector potential locally, near the origin of a considered coordinates system. As it follows, the interaction energy of an arbitrary considered current density j with a plane wave electromagnetic (E-M) field will be calculated in the frame of Classical Electrodynamics [6] taking in account the anapolar (also known as toroid) moment. A vector potential function for the plane E-M wave is proposed close to the origin linked to the current j, wich is observed far from the origin. The current is considered having no divergence and contained in a finite volume. There are taken in account the following: International System of Units (S.I.), the Coulomb gauge fixing conditions, the non-relativistic case. As results of the above premises, the following results can be mentioned: calculations of the interaction energy, interaction force and torque. The mentioned results are containing the possibility of easy calculation of them by calculating the multipole moments of the considered current j. The toroid moment highlights the direct interaction of the electric field with the current.
