Potential Field


Potential Field :

(n.) Geophysics. A field that satisfies the Laplace equation. The Laplace equation is equivalent in three dimensions to the inverse square law of gravitational or electrical attraction (in source-free regions; in regions with sources, it becomes Poisson's equation). Examples of potential fields include the field of the gravity potential and static electric and magnetic fields. See: Gravity, Laplace Equation, Magnetics
