The absorption magnetic circular dichroism in EuTe was investigated as a function of the magnetic field at T = 2 K. In order to describe the optical spectra theoretically, we developed a model that takes into account the magnetic order of the lattice as a function of the magnetic field. The model allows us to calculate the absorption spectrum as a continuous function of the magnetic field intensity. The theory accounts for the strongly dichroic absorption seen at high fields, and for its continuous evolution towards the B = 0 spectrum, which is described by a much weaker and much broader absorption line. The drastic changes observed in the experimental spectra as a function of magnetic field are fully explained by the dependence of the Eu2+ spin arrangement on the external magnetic field.
