Abstract
The reaction field generated by a point dipole in a polarizable medium is considerably underestimated and the screening of the dipolar field is considerably overestimated by the classical continuum theory. The importance of the induced-dipole-induced-dipole contribution, particularly in reducing the screening in a normal liquid, is demonstrated by molecular-dynamics computer calculations.Keywords
