The chirality-induced spin selectivity (CISS) effect enables the detection of chirality as electrical charge signals. It is often studied in a spin-valve device where a ferromagnet is connected to a chiral component between two electrodes, and magnetoresistance (MR) is reported upon magnetization reversal. This however is not expected in the linear response regime because of compensating reciprocal processes, thereby limiting the interpretation of experimental results. Here we show that MR effects can indeed appear in the linear response regime, but not by complete magnetization or magnetic field reversal. We illustrate this in a spin-valve device and in a chiral thin film as the CISS-induced Hanle magnetoresistance (CHMR) effect.
