A chiral molecule beside a small chiral sphere (ε = −4 + 0.3i, χ = 0.1, k₀a = 0.01): its radiative rate against Guzatov & Klimov's Eq. 46 Guzatov & Klimov, New J. Phys. 14, 123009 (2012): a molecule with electric moment d₀ and magnetic moment −iξd₀ (the two handednesses, ξ = ±0.1) beside a chiral plasmonic sphere radiates at different rates: chiral discrimination. Their quasi-static Eq. 46 against PyStratify's full chiral solution; agreement to O((k₀a)²).
