In which parts of antenna the charges acclerate?


Parts with r-f-current flow, the greatest radiation occurring from
locations along the radiator where current is greatest.

Current flow is near zero at the ends of any unloaded dipole, and at
the top of any unloaded vertical monopole (even those in directional
arrays).
