Return to the diagram shown in Fig. 5. As the second important feature of the yielded pattern, we can mark the absence of standing waves in the near field. This corroborates the conclusion made in [10]. And this does not depend on the relationship between the dipole length and wavelength. As an example, in Fig. 9 we show the dynamic pattern of scalar potential of dipole when its length is equal to the wavelength.

We see that along the line of charges there formed the skip zone, just as it usually takes place. In this connection the shape of semi-waves has changed. But with it there arose the standing waves neither in the region of transverse waves propagation towards the normal to the line of charges nor in the region of longitudinal waves propagation whose maximum we see now approximately under 45 degrees to the axis of charges.
