Harmonic tensors
text:
In this article spherical functions are replaced by polynomials that have been well known in electrostatics since the time of Maxwell and associated with multipole moments. In physics, dipole and quadrupole moments typically appear because fundamental concepts of physics are associated precisely with them. Dipole and quadrupole moments are: where ρ is density of charges. Octupole moment is used rather seldom. As a rule, high-rank moments are calculated with the help of spherical functions.
