We calculate precise numerical values for the nondivergent direct or staggered zero-temperature susceptibilities of the one-dimensional,
S=21, transverse Ising model at the critical field and for the isotropic
XY model in zero field which have not been previously determined analytically. Our method is based on a rigorous approach to calculate dynamic correlation functions for these models. We also investigate the exact nature of the divergenices in the
q-dependent susceptibilities. Our results are compared with existing predictions of approximate analytic approaches and numerical finite-chain calculations. Our result for the
XY case is directly relevant for the interpretation of recent susceptibility measurements on the quasi-one-dimensional magnetic compound
Cs2CoCl4.
