Magnetic field at a point along the solenoid's axis but outside the solenoid

In summary, the conversation discusses the problem of calculating the EMF induced by a solenoid and the vector magnetic field inductance at a point outside the solenoid's length but on its axis. The solution is to google the magnetic field on the axis of a current loop at a distance from the loop and integrate over the solenoid's length. The conversation also mentions a helpful link for further information.

TL;DR Summary
For a personal project, I need to calculate the EMF induced by a solenoid, the problem is, that the secondary circuiit where the eddy currents are formed are outside the solenoid's length but on it's axis.
For a personal project, I need to calculate the EMF induced by a solenoid, the problem is, that the secondary circuit where the eddy currents are formed are outside the solenoid's length but still on it's axis.
The problem comes when i need to calculate the vector magnetic field inductance at a point outside the solenoid, i've been searching for quite a while but I have not managed to find an awnser, I just find keep finding that the net magnetic field vector due to ampere's law is near zero, but outsithe the radious of the solenoid, not ousithe the length of the solenoid

In Gaussian units, B is
$$B=\frac{2\pi nI}{c}\left[\frac{L/2-z}{\sqrt{(z-L/2)^2+a^2},
+\frac{(z+L/2)}{\sqrt{(z+L/2)^2+a^2}}\right]$$,
where ##n## is the number of turns per cm, ##I## is the current, ##a## is the radius, and ##z## is the distance along the axis from the center.
Why isn't latex working?

Google the magnetic field in axis of a current loop a distance ##z## from the loop (the off-axis field is moderately nasty but the on axis field is a simple expression). Then work out how many turns per unit length you have and integrate over the length of the solenoid.

You have unbalanced {} in the denominator of the first fraction inside the square brackets.

It was a missing bracket in the first frac.

Perfect, just what i needed, thnks!
