TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of pressure on the stability, ordering and thermo-dynamic properties of the discotic nematic-isotropic transition was studied, and the second and fourth Legendre polynomial order parameters in the evaluation of the angle-dependent term in the expression of the excluded volume and the perturbation term.
Abstract: We study the influence of pressure on the stability, ordering and thermo-dynamic properties of the discotic nematic-isotropic transition. In the present calculation we include both the second and fourth Legendre polynomial order parameters in the evaluation of the angle-dependent term in the expression of the excluded volume and the perturbation term.
