Abstract
The static magnetization induced by unpolarized (or arbitrarily polarized) light in an isotropic medium composed of chiral molecules increases significantly in absolute magnitude near optical resonances. The magnetic dipole as well as electric quadrupole interaction with the radiation field have been taken into consideration to obtain analytical expressions for and numerical calculations of the effect. Dispersion curves of diamagnetic and paramagnetic contributions to the inverse magnetochiral birefringence are shown. Complete theoretical expressions for the nonlinear polarizabilities involved in the effect are presented and their properties discussed.
