STUDY OF AN OSCILLATING CHARGE IN A DIPOLE-QUADRUPOLE SYSTEM

Abstract

The solution of the problem of determining the magnitude of the component of the electric field intensity vector generated by an oscillating charge in a dipole-quadrupole system in a homogeneous medium is obtained. Two mutually perpendicular directions of charge oscillations in a cylindrical coordinate system are considered. From the analysis of the obtained dependences for the oscillation frequencies, it can be seen that in the first case, the frequency of «vertical» oscillations exceeds the frequency of «horizontal» oscillations. Knowing the maximum and minimum frequencies of the oscillating charge radiation spectrum, it is possible to calculate the molecular parameters. The analysis of the parameters of the radiation spectrum of a harmonically oscillating charge performing a non-relativistic motion can be used in the analysis of the electromagnetic radiation spectra of atoms and molecules in an excited state, as well as the parameters of the crystal lattice.
