Abstract
A simple calculation shows that the Lorentz-Lorenz shift due to the local field correction remains significant in situations where the inhomogeneous broadening of a medium exceeds the homogeneous broadening. As an illustration, the calculated selective reflection signals of a low-density atomic vapor are presented, and it is shown that the Lorentz-Lorenz shift persists in the case where the line width is predominantly determined by the inhomogeneous Doppler width.
