Polarizability magnetic

Aj (extracted from measurements along and normal to the nematic director), is proportional to the nematic order parameter S. The proportionality constant is the anisotropy of the corresponding molecular attribute (Aj - A ). When the longitudinal and transverse molecular attributes and At. respectively, are accessible, the nematic order parameter and its temperature dependence may be determined. Properties such as the molar refractivity, polarizability, magnetic (dielectric) susceptibility, etc., are typical quantities that have been studied to infer the nematic order parameter. 

Second-order response properties, such as electric polarizabilities, magnetic susceptibilities, and atomic polar tensors, can be readily partitioned into either atomic or atom-pair contributions with the help of the theory of AIMs. The former partitioning is accomplished by taking derivatives of the pertinent first-order properties with respect to strengths of external perturbations, whereas the latter involves a somewhat more complicated (albeit more theoretically consistent) formalism. In general, the atomic and atom-pair contributions to the second-order response properties are the sums of the atomic basin and surface relaxation terms. ... 

The calculation and analysis of various properties of the reaction complex such as dipole moment, polarizability, magnetic susceptibility, etc., as a function of s complements the description. 

Thirdly, induced properties are those that measure the response of a system to an applied field. I will concentrate on polarizabilities (for which the external field is electric) and magnetizabilities (for which the apphed field is magnetic) in a later chapter. 

The polarizability, ionization potential, and magnetic susceptibility data from the last edition of the Landolt-Bornstein tables are given in Table I for the inert gases and for H2, Na, Ci2, and CH4. The coefficients of the dipole-dipole or R 6 potential term are...

A fourth possibility is electrodynamic bonding. This arises because atoms and molecules are not static, but are dynamically polarizable into dipoles. Each dipole oscillates, sending out an electromagnetic field which interacts with other nearby dipoles causing them to oscillate. As the dipoles exchange electro-magnetic energy (photons), they attract one another (London, 1937). 

An electric dipole operator, of importance in electronic (visible and uv) and in vibrational spectroscopy (infrared) has the same symmetry properties as Ta. Magnetic dipoles, of importance in rotational (microwave), nmr (radio frequency) and epr (microwave) spectroscopies, have an operator with symmetry properties of Ra. Raman (visible) spectra relate to polarizability and the operator has the same symmetry properties as terms such as x2, xy, etc. In the study of optically active species, that cause helical movement of charge density, the important symmetry property of a helix to note, is that it corresponds to simultaneous translation and rotation. Optically active molecules must therefore have a symmetry such that Ta and Ra (a = x, y, z) transform as the same i.r. It only occurs for molecules with an alternating or improper rotation axis, Sn. 

The atomic properties satisfy the necessary physical requirement of paralleling the transferability of their charge distributions - atoms that look the same in two molecules contribute identical amounts to all properties in both molecules, including field-induced properties. Thus the atoms of theory recover the experimentally measurable contributions to the volume, heats of formation, electric polarizability, and magnetic susceptibility in those cases where the group contributions are found to be transferable, as well as additive additive [4], The additivity of the atomic properties coupled with the observation that their transferability parallels the transferability of the atom s physical form are unique to QTAIM and are essential for a theory of atoms in molecules that purports to explain the observations of experimental chemistry. 

In addition to these external electric or magnetic field as a perturbation parameter, solvents can be another option. Solvents having different dielectric constants would mimic different field strengths. In the recent past, several solvent models have been used to understand the reactivity of chemical species [55,56]. The well-acclaimed review article on solvent effects can be exploited in this regard [57]. Different solvent models such as conductor-like screening model (COSMO), polarizable continuum model (PCM), effective fragment potential (EFP) model with mostly water as a solvent have been used in the above studies. 

A vast amount of data based on dielectric constant measurements of substances in dilute solution in nonpolar solvents indicate that the theory is correct, but it looses validity and breaks down completely in the case of strongly polar media. It is interesting to notice that such a breakdown can be shown by the concept of the Curie point, introduced in connection with studies of magnetism but directly applicable to the case of dielectric constants. The dielectric constant can be related to the molar polarizability P and the molar concentration c by q. (21) and the value of P itself is given by Eq. (22). It is obvious that P increases as T dimin-...
