ABSTRACT
We describe an experimental and theoretical study of the effect of optical absorption on the photonic Hall effect in a passive matrix containing magnetoactive scatterers. We find that for the case of absorbing scatterers, the magnetotransverse light current changes sign and increases with increasing absorption. Good agreement is obtained with numerical calculations. For the case of an absorbing matrix, no effect was observed.
