Confused by validity of torque on a magnetic dipole

In think you're just thinking about the exterior multipole expansion for large distance $r$ compared with the loop size $r'$, which has terms looking like: $$\big(\frac {r'}r\big)^l\sum_{m-l}^{m+l}Y_{ …

Why do we make a dipole a ideal dipole?

Because a non-ideal dipole has higher order moments. See: Multipole expansion. Really, it's the same reason we use plane waves, which are a single frequency, but require infinite temporal and spatial …

Polarisation inside neutron

You are asking if the neutron can have an "induced neutron electric dipole moment" (quotes are for search terms): yes, it can. Whether is does is unknown. Before addressing that, note that a permanen …
