5.1 Local Field Correction Factor
109
The left side consists of the “external” field E 0 and the electric field from permanent
dipoles of neighboring molecules −T μ 0 . E 0 −T μ 0 is a hypothetical electric field in
Eq. (5.7) with the polarizability switched off, α = 0. In the realistic case, however,
the dipole moments of molecules are affected each other, and as a consequence,
the electric field changes from E 0 − T μ 0 to E. g is therefore considered to be a
microscopic definition of the local field correction factor, and deviates from unity
when the constituent molecules are polarizable.
In the same vein, Eq. (5.10) illustrates the role of g T , which changes the dipole
moments of molecules from μ 0 to μ,
μ
0
+ αE
0

0 g T
− → μ.
The left side μ 0 stands for the dipole moment consisting of the permanent dipole
μ 0 and the induced one by the external field αE 0 . Accordingly, μ 0 does not include
the dipole-dipole interaction among molecular polarizations, and g T takes account
of the dipole-dipole coupling effect on the polarizations. To summarize, both factors
g and g T account for the effect of the self-consistent coupling among polarizations.
g affects on the electric field while g T on the dipole moment. Note the distinction
between g and g T in the transpose relation.
Dipole M Using the solutions of E and μ in Eqs. (5.9) and (5.10), we can derive
the dipole moment and polarizability of the whole system. The dipole moment of
the whole system M is given by the sum of total (permanent + induced) dipole
moments of constituent molecules,
M =
N
i=1
μ(i).

μ(i) is a part of the 3N -dimensional vector μ in Eq. (5.5). Equation (5.12) is
expanded in the component representation using Eq. (5.10) by
