 Acoustic loading noise

Loading noise is the acoustic dipole radiation of the force exerted by a body on its surrounding fluid. For a compact, slowly moving source, the radiating acoustic density perturbation is $n\cdot \dot{\mathcal{F}}(t-R/c_0)/(4\pi c_0^{3}R)$, where $\mathcal{F}$ is the total force. If this total is constant, finite source-delay corrections can still create higher acoustic multipole sources.
