✦ Synopsis

In this study, the dependence of fourth-rank order parameter on second-rank order parameter for para-azoxyanisole is investigated by using Tsallis statistics. Also, orientational distribution function is studied within Tsallis thermostatistics using the maximum entropy method, and the generalized distribution function is plotted for various values of the entropic index. The e ects of the nonextensivity are illustrated for various values of the entropic index.

The symmetry of the thermotropic q ematic phase of 2,3,4\_tri+hexyloxycinnamic acid is investigated using deuterium NMR spectroscopy of the nematogen selectively deutera&d in the ethylenic bond. In our experiments the sample was spun about an axis orthogonal to the magnetic field in order to produce
