:Absolutely a dipole magnet is a bending or steering magnet specifically used on the [[beamline]] for [[particle beam]]s in [[particle accelerator]]s, they are numerously found in a particle accelerators. See pictures of dipole magnets on this article. Not to mention [[Quadrupole magnet]]s; Octapoles, and Sextapoles yet to have an article on, but its coming as I just got pics. Hope that helps [[User:Scottfisher|Scott]] 10:48, 18 October 2005 (UTC)
:Yes, dipole magnet kind of means what you say, Smack. But the term is actually rather closely associated with its applications. What you describe might be better discussed on a page on [[magnetic dipole moment]] or something like that. That being said, probably a more general bit in the intro wouldn't hurt. -- [[User:SCZenz|SCZenz]] 14:39, 18 October 2005 (UTC)
