Calculation of the Electromagnetic Field Around a Microtubule

Microtubules are important structures in the cytoskeleton which organizes the cell. A single microtubule is composed of electrically polar
structures, tubulin heterodimers, which have a strong electric dipole moment. Vibrations are expected to be generated in microtubules, thus
tubulin heterodimers oscillate as electric dipoles. This gives rise to an electromagnetic field which is detected around the cells. We calculate
here the electromagnetic field of microtubules if they are excited at 1 GHz.
