==Electric quadrupole {Anchor|electric quadrupole}== ==Magnetic quadrupole== All known magnetic sources give dipole fields. However, to make a magnetic quadrupole it is possible to place four identical bar magnets perpendicular to each other such that the north pole of one is next to the south of the other. Such a configuration cancels the dipole ...
