dipole /di·pole/ (di´pōl) 1. a molecule having separated charges of equal and opposite sign. 2. a pair of electric charges or magnetic poles separated by a short distance. dipole [dī′pōl] 1 a molecule whose ends carry opposite partial charges. 2 a molecule with areas of opposing electrical charges, such as hydrogen chloride, which has a predominance of electrons and a partial negative charge about the chloride portion and a partial positive charge on the hydrogen side. dipole 1. a molecule having charges of equal and opposite sign. 2. a pair of electric charges or magnetic poles separated by a short distance.

They highlight new results and developments in such topics as neutron electric dipole moment searches, neutron optics and interferometry, Standard Model tests using neutron beta decay, neutron facilities, neutron polarimetry, and nucleon-nucleon interactions. At high pressures, the two electrons prefer to stay close to just one of the protons, producing an uneven distribution of charge known as an electric dipole. The conference started with a session on what is considered by many particle physicists to be the flagship of the field, namely the search for an electric dipole moment (EDM) of the neutron. |
