Electrostatic potential of a homogeneously charged square and cube in two and three dimensions

chem-ph 2008-02-03 v1 Chemical Physics

Abstract

A closed form of the electrostatic potential of a homogeneously charged cube is derived by integration. The exact result is compared with multipole expansions for the exterior and interior of the cube. The electrostatic potential of a homogeneously charged square in two-dimensional electrostatics is also determined.
