Abstract

Dipole Cluster Inspector – Version 2.1.0Numerical Exploration of Dipole-Dipole Interactions The dipole-dipole interaction plays a crucial role in the cohesion of matter. Due to the mathematical equivalence between electric and magnetic dipole interactions, this fundamental physical phenomenon can be explored experimentally using magnetic spheres. The Dipole Cluster Inspector (dipole_cluster_inspector.py) provides an interactive environment for the numerical investigation of magnetic dipole systems. It enables the detailed analysis of: Dipole arrangements Magnetic field distributions Binding energies Mutual interactions for clusters comprising more than 500 magnetic dipoles. What's new in Version 2.1.0: ✦ Spherical harmonic analysis of the scalar magnetic potential ✦ Two new interactive 3D visualization windows for enhanced spatial insight ✦ Improved handling of line dipoles and correction of previous issues This tool is designed for scientific and educational purposes, enabling the study of dipole interactions in fundamental cluster geometries, with particular emphasis on regular polyhedra.
