Abstract
We present an ab initio approach for the computation of the magnetic susceptibility of insulators. The approach is applied to compute in diamond and in solid neon using density functional theory in the local density approximation, obtaining good agreement with experimental data. In solid neon, we predict an observable dependence of upon pressure.
