Calculation of the torque exerted on a narrow slab of a nematic liquid crystal in a high magnetic field

  In this paper t he hydrodynamic equations for a narrow slab when the state of nematic liquid crystal is deformed slightly by a high magnetic field are solved. Then the components of velocities and the torque exerted on the torsional oscillator in which the slab is contained are calculated, and the...
