Abstract
In these lectures I shall focus on some rather simple, but very general aspects of magneto-optics. The material to be covered is based on recent advances in dispersion theory1–4 and the sum rule5–9 or moments analysis10, 11 of optical data which were prompted in large part by the discovery12, 13 of magneto-optical effects in defects that could not be analyzed by conventional theory. My aim is to provide both an introduction to these new methods and some insight into the physics on which they are based.
