Théorie quantique du pouvoir rotatoire magnétique des molécules diamagnétiques. II. Applications

The general formalism of the variational theory of the Faraday effect established in the first part of this paper is now applied to the actual computation of the Verdet constant of the hydrogen molecule, of water and of some saturated hydrocarbons. The numerical results have a correct order of magnitude and even, for hydrogen, are rather close to the experimental value.
