In a preliminary investigation of the vacuum magnetooptic effect, we evaluated the effect of non-resonant magnetooptic birefringence due to residual gases contained in the vacuum cell. We measured the magnetooptic birefringence coefficient of the gas under the atmospheric pressure. We used a semiconductor laser oscillating at 780 nm as a light source. The laser output flux was stabilized to 2X10^<-4>. The extinction ratio of the polarization analyzer was (2-3)X10^<-8>.Light from the laser was passed through a linear polarizer and a retarding plate to convert the light beam into an elliptically polarized state. We passed the light bean through a cell containing oxygen molecular gas, which was placed in magnetic field of 0.8T.The field was oriented at 45 degrees from the polarization azimuth of incident light and was transverse to the optical path. The polarization change caused by magnetically induced optical anisotropy of oxygen gas was detected with a polarization analyzer.The measured magnetooptic birefringence of oxygen molecule is expressed by DELTAn=ClambdaB^2, with C=-(5.4(〕SY.+-.〔)0.5)x10^<-15>[G^<-2>cm^<-1>](lambda=780nm, 16ﾟC, 1 atm.). The constant C for nitrogen and argon is smaller than that fo oxygen. The magnetooptic birefringence of residual gases at pressures above 10^<-10>[Torr] can affect the detection of the vacuum birefringence induced by a magnetic field.

在真空磁管效应的初步投资中，我们评估了由于真空电池中包含的残留气体引起的非谐波磁磁双发性双折射的作用。我们测量了在大气压下气体的磁置双发系数。我们使用在780 nm处振荡的半导体激光作为光源。激光输出通量稳定至2x10^<-4>。极化分析仪的延伸比为（2-3）x10^<-8>。激光器的灯通过线性偏振器和延迟板，将光束转换为椭圆极化状态。我们将轻豆穿过含氧分子气体的细胞，该细胞位于0.8T的磁场中。该场从入射光的极化方位角以45度定向，并横向至光路径。用极化分析仪检测到磁性氧气的光学各向异性引起的极化变化。测得的氧气分子的磁复发性由deltan = clambdab^2表达，并带有clambdab^2，并表达c = - （5.4（5.4（<>sy。+ - 。<）0.5）x10^<-15> [g^<-2> cm^<-1>]（lambda = 780nm，16ﾟC，1 atm。）。氮和氩气的常数C小于那个FO氧。在10^<-10> [torr]高于10^<-10>的压力下，残留气体的磁置双发性双向反射会影响磁场诱导的真空双折射的检测。
