Q _ { \ ell m } is the same as the electric multipole moment in the static case if it were applied to the static charge distribution \ rho ( \ mathbf { x } ) whereas Q _ { \ ell m }'corresponds to an induced electric multipole moment from the intrinsic magnetization of the source material.

More precisely, type "'D "'fields occur as the field of a gravitating object which is completely characterized by its mass and angular momentum . ( A more general object might have nonzero higher multipole moments . ) The two double principal null directions define " radially " ingoing and outgoing null congruences near the object which is the source of the field.

At present it seems that only approximate solutions modeling slowly rotating fluid balls are known . ( Slowly rotating fluid balls are the relativistic analog of oblate spheroidal balls with nonzero mass and angular momentum but vanishing higher multipole moments . ) However, the exterior of the Neugebauer Meinel disk, an exact dust solution which models a rotating thin disk, approaches in a limiting case the GM ^ 2 = cJ Kerr geometry.

Both ordinary and collision-induced spectra may be observed in emission and absorption and require an electric or magnetic multipole moment-in most cases an electric dipole moment-to exist for an optical transition to take place from an initial to a final quantum state of a molecule or a molecular complex . ( For brevity of expression we will use here the term " molecule " interchangeably for atoms as well as molecules ).
