Abstract
The possibility of observing x-ray natural circular dichroism (XNCD) in enantiomorphous CsCuCl3 crystals has been considered. The spectra of XNCD in CsCuCl3 have been numerically simulated for the K, L1, L2, and L3 x-ray absorption edges of copper, cesium, and chlorine using FDMNES and LMTO programs. It has been shown that the largest value of dichroism signal can be expected near the copper and chlorine L1 edges.
