Abstract
The propagation of a light wave through a dispersing medium is discussed. The absorption frequencies of the medium are shown to be the absorption frequencies of the coupled system formed by molecules contained in a cavity elongated in the direction of the electric intensity of the incident wave. The cavity is supposed to contain a large number of molecules and yet to be small compared to the wave-length.Keywords
