Birth of an electric dipole

We use the Maxwell's equations to simulate the 2D electromagnetic field generated by the birth of an electric dipole. Initially, two equal but opposite charges of radius 1/64 are overlapped, cancelling each other out. At t=0, they both shoot out horizontally in opposite directions with speed v=c/5, generating an electric current and increasing the dipole moment of the system. The parameters used are dt = 5e-4 and light speed c=1, and we have absorbed the usual factors of 4𝜋 within the sources 𝜌 and J.
