Wink asymmetric emission

I doubt there are 4 poles. An inherent asymmetry in all parity effects is more likely the cause of the poles appearing different, not a secondary pair of poles. Anytime a neutron and a proton change identity, the weak force is at work. Weak forces "feel" magnetic fields and respond asymmetrically to the polarity..see T.D.K. Lee, and C.N. Yang, Wikipedia. I'll bet a box of chocolate chip cookies there aren't 4 poles. Pete.

Quadrapole distributions are not uncommon, I'm not sure why you'd wager so much
