Maier-Saupe nematogenic fluid with isotropic Yukawa repulsion at a hard wall: Mean field approximation
The mean field approximation is formulated within the framework of the density field theory to study the properties of a Maier-Saupe nematogenic fluid near a hard wall. The density and the order parameter profiles are obtained using the analytical expressions derived in the linearized mean field app...
