Monopole in a sentence

Computer simulations further showed that a monopole’s charge would fully flip – from positive to negative, say – if it moved through the Alice ring.

County commissioners approved a request by Cellco Partnership of Grand Rapids, Michigan to rezone the site for a 195 foot monopole tower.

The monopole towers should be complete by the end of February, according to Robert Kievra, a spokesman for National Grid.

A monopole-like sound field is generated by volumetric flow rate oscillations.

At the 1954 Le Mans DB entered five cars and were also involved with Panhards "Monopole" racers.

Because of the close relationship of flow symmetry to the sound field generated, their concept was included here as part of the sound source description (monopole -symmetric and dipole - asymmetric).

Despite these efforts, no magnetic monopole has been observed to date.

Ekpyrotic models avoid the magnetic monopole problem as long as the temperature at the Big Crunch/Big Bang transition remains below the Grand Unified Scale, as this is the temperature required to produce magnetic monopoles in the first place.

For example, a monopole antenna such as a metal rod fed at one end, will be resonant when its electrical length is equal to a quarter wavelength, λ/4, of the frequency used.

For example, a vertical monopole antenna requires a ground plane that often consists of an interconnected network of wires running radially away from the base of the antenna for a distance about equal to the height of the antenna.

If the sphere is small enough relative to the sound wavelength it is emitting, it can be called a point monopole.

It is likely a stick/slip mechanism which would be a dipole like source rather than a volumetric (monopole) oscillation of the sand particles.

Many whistles, especially those with Class III feedback, require use of both numbers (see (Monopole-Dipole Whistles).

Monopole and earth return If no metallic conductor is installed, current flows in the earth and/or sea between two specially designed earth electrodes.

Monopole and metallic return These effects can be eliminated with installation of a metallic return conductor between the two ends of the monopolar transmission line.

Monopole-like whistles In these whistles, the flow instability is symmetric, often resulting in periodic ring vortices and the sound generation is associated with fluctuations of volumetric (mass) flow rates.

Note that this is violated for Minkowski space with a line removed, which can model a (flat) space-time with a point-like monopole on the the complement of the line.

Pipe organ The pipe organ is another example of a potentially dipole sound source being driven as a monopole source.

Similarly, the feedpoint impedance of a monopole antenna longer than λ/4 (or a dipole with arms longer than λ/4) will include inductive reactance.

So a monopole mounted over an ideal ground plane has a radiation pattern identical to a dipole antenna.
