Abstract
By methods of spherical tensor algebra and applying the dipole-induced dipole (DID) model, a general expression is derived with accuracy to within the second order of statistical perturbation theory for the effective polarizability and Rayleigh-scattered light intensity for liquids composed of unlike anisotropic molecules. The results have permitted the application of a computer simulated binary distribution function to calculate the scattered light intensity. The roles of various contributions to the integral intensity are discussed. Numerical calculations are performed for liquid Br2 and N2 pointing to an essential role of angular-radial correlations and cross terms. The general expressions are shown to simplify easily in the particular case of radially but not angularly correlated molecules.
