Abstract
Measurements of spin-lattice relaxation time and complex permittivity have been performed for monocrystalline and polycrystalline pyridinium perchlora te as a function of hydrostatic pressure and temperature. The influence of pressure on the reorientation of the pyridinium cation was analysed. The po tential shape and heights of the energy barriers for this reorientation in all three phases have been determined. For phase I and III the pressure dep endence of the activation enthalpy was obtained.
