Abstract
A system identifies double-layer dipoles in a magnetic image by defining two-dimensional patches of distributed point charges that simulate the double-layer dipoles. The geometric center of a two-dimensional patch is used as the location of an equivalent dipole moment of the double-layer dipole. The momentum of the equivalent dipole moment is determined by submitting the magnetic image to a dipole construction system that identifies the location and momentum based on the submitted magnetic image.
