The magnetic field generated by a charge in a uniaxial magnetoelectric   material
  We revisit the description of the magnetic field around antiferromagnetic magnetoelectrics in the context of recent developments regarding magnetoelectric monopoles. Using Maxwell's equations, we calculate the magnetic and electric fields associated with a free charge in a bulk uniaxial magnetoelectric, as well as in a finite sphere of magnetoelectric material. We show that a charge in the prototypical magnetoelectric Cr$_2$O$_3$, which is uniaxial with a diagonal magnetoelectric response, induces an internal magnetic field with both monopolar and quadrupolar components, but that only the quadrupolar contribution extends beyond the sample surface. We discuss the behavior of the external quadrupolar field and compare its magnitude to those of magnetic fields from other sources.
