Moving Charge and Biot-Savart Law

The source starts magnetic field with a moving point charge and the current-element form of Biot-Savart law.

Moving point charge
B⃗=μ04πq(v⃗×r⃗)r3\vec B=\frac{\mu_0}{4\pi}\frac{q(\vec v\times\vec r)}{r^3}
Biot-Savart law
dB⃗=μ0I4πdl⃗×r⃗r3d\vec B=\frac{\mu_0 I}{4\pi}\frac{d\vec l\times\vec r}{r^3}
