K. Sogo et S. Ichimura, METASTABLE STATE IN NEMATIC LIQUID-CRYSTALS UNDER MAGNETIC-FIELD, Journal of the Physical Society of Japan, 67(9), 1998, pp. 3026-3030
Metastable state is found in nematic liquid crystals under magnetic fi
eld. The solution is expressed exactly hy Jacobi's elliptic functions.
Methods to realize such state experimentally are proposed.
