Revannasiddaiah 1 Department of Studies in Physics, University of Mysore, Manassagangotri, Mysore - 570 006 (INDIA) <p style="text-align: justify;">X-ray Laue type diffraction patterns were recorded using the image plate system at different temperatures in the nematic phase of 4,4&#39;-Dihexylazoxy- benzene. From the diffused ring, normally observed in the nematic phase and employing three different models the microscopic order parameter has been computed. The order parameter obtained from this technique have been compared with that obtained form optical method. The distribution function estimated at different temperatures in the nematic phase using Deutsch method has also been reported.<br /> &nbsp;</p> https://ultraphysicalsciences.org/paper/1365/ X-ray Distribution function Microscopic order parameter.
