The off-axis field of circular loop is
much more complex. For z >> a it is
identical to that of the electric dipole

B field of large current loop
• Electrostatics – began with sheet of electric monopoles
• Magnetostatics – begin sheet of magnetic dipoles
• Sheet of magnetic dipoles equivalent to current loop
• Magnetic moment for one dipole m = I a area a

Electrostatic potential of dipole sheet
• Now consider line integral E.dℓ from sheet of electric dipoles
• m = I a I = m/a (density of magnetic moments)
• Replace I by Np (dipole moment density) and o by 1/o
• Contour C is again closed by large semi-circle which
contributes zero to line integral
