class SimPEG.electromagnetics.time_domain.sources.MagDipole(receiver_list=None, location=None, moment=1.0, orientation='z', mu=1.25663706212e-06, srcType='inductive', **kwargs)[source]#

Bases: BaseTDEMSrc

Point magnetic dipole source calculated by taking the curl of a magnetic vector potential. By taking the discrete curl, we ensure that the magnetic flux density is divergence free (no magnetic monopoles!).

Parameters:
receiver_listlist of SimPEG.electromagnetics.time_domain.receivers.BaseRx

A list of TDEM receivers

location(dim) numpy.ndarray, default = np.r_[0., 0., 0.]

Source location.

momentfloat

Magnetic dipole moment amplitude

orientation{“z”, “x”, “y”} or (3) numpy.ndarray

Orientation of the magnetic dipole.

mufloat

Background magnetic permeability

source_type{‘inductive’, ‘galvanic’}

Implement as an inductive or galvanic source

Attributes

location

Location of the dipole

moment

Amplitude of the dipole moment of the magnetic dipole (\(A/m^2\))

mu

Magnetic permeability in H/m

orientation

Orientation of the dipole as a normalized vector

Methods

bInitial(simulation)

Compute initial magnetic flux density.

hInitial(simulation)

Compute initial magnetic field.

s_e(simulation, time)

Electric source term (s_e) at a given time

s_m(simulation, time)

Magnetic source term (s_m) at a given time
