    The document discusses the magnetic field generated by different current distributions and magnetized objects. It first explains that for a loop of wire, higher order corrections to the magnetic field cancel out. However, for an open half-circle of wire, the contributions do not cancel. It then analyzes the specific case of a uniformly magnetized sphere and cylinder, finding analytical expressions for the vector and scalar magnetic potentials both inside and outside the objects.

    exactly cancel when the integral is performed.

    Thus, the higher order corrections cancel for the specific case of the loop of wire.

    On the other hand, if the current density does not have this symmetry the higher order term will not nessecarially cancel.
    Consider, for example, a half circle of wire which is closed by a straight line through the origin. The contributions to the
    integral from the straight path are obviously zero and the contribution from the half-circle will not cancel.

    This setup has a differential current given by the expression

    dJ = σωa3 sin(θ)(− sin(φ)x̂ + cos(φ)ŷ) sin(θ)δ(r − a)drdθdφ


    Notice that this is exactly the same as the uniiformly magnetized sphere on section 5.10 with M0 = σωa, so the integration
    works out the same way and we have the result that there is only a φ component of A with value
    µ0 r<
    Aφ (x) = σωa3 sin(θ)
    3 r >2
    • (Interior of the Sphere) On the interior of the sphere we have a potential

    µ0 r
    A<φ (x) = σωa3 2 sin(θ)
    3 a
    With all other components zero. The magnetic field is given by the curl of A< so that

    2
    Br (x) = µ0 σωa cos(θ)
    3
    2
    Bθ (x) = − µ0 σωa sin(θ)
    3
    Bφ (x) = 0

    • (Exterior of the Sphere) On the exterior of the sphere, there is a potential

    µ0 a
    A>φ (x) = σωa3 2 sin(θ)
    3 r
    With all other components zero. The magnetic field is given by the curl of A< so that

    2 µ0 σωa4
    Br (x) = cos(θ)
    3 r3
    1 µ0 σωa4
    Bθ (x) = sin(θ)
    3 r3
    Bφ (x) = 0
