Abstract

The problem of polarized light propagation in the me¬dia with weak inho-mogeneous anisotropy and gyrotropy (natural and induced is considered. It is shown that the polarization state in such media undergoes spatial oscillations, which amplitude is maximum when changes of dielectric per-meability and gyrotropy are same.
