In electromagnetic theory the Faraday effect can be explained as follows. When the medium magnetization has non-zero projection on the wave vector ko of the incident radiation, two independent fundamental Maxwell equations solutions are circular polarized waves with different refractive indexes n+M n, respectively. At the output of the magnetic medium these waves gain phase shift and when added give Unearly polarized wave with rotated polarization plane. That is why Faraday effect is also called magnetic circular birefringence [26, 27]. 

Specific magnetic circular birefringence and magnetic circular dichroism can be unified into one general concept— the complex specific Faraday rotation ... 

The effects of the role of matrix birefringence, photoselection, and rotational diffusion on measuring the circular dichroism of chiral excited triplets embedded in a rigid matrix have been examined. The techniques described in this paper are applied to chiral dimer-like molecules in the binaphthyl and spirobifluorene series. Natural and magnetic circular dichroism spectra of selenofenchone provide evidence for a singlet-triplet component of the n - IT transition. ... 

In the next section we summarize the theoretical background for coupled cluster response theory and discuss certain issues related to their actual implementation. In Sections 3 and 4 we describe the application of quadratic and cubic response in calculations of first and second hyperpolarizabilities. The use of response theory to calculate magneto-optical properties as e.g. the Faraday effect, magnetic circular dichroism, Buckingham effect, Cotton-Mouton effect or Jones birefringence is discussed in Section 5. Finally we give some conclusions and an outlook in Section 6. 

MOR, also known as Faraday effect) [21], i.e. an induced rotation of the plane of polarization (or circular birefringence). The other is an induced circular dichroism referred to as magnetic-circular dichroism (MCD) [21, 22, 132, 133].
