Note that <math>I</math> is not the current but <math>\mu_0</math> times the current. The functional dependence on the angular variables is again motivated by the single-valuedness of the magnetic field. The particular form of the coefficients can be obtained noting that | Note that <math>I</math> is not the current but <math>\mu_0</math> times the current.
