Field Induced Memory Effects in Random Nematics

Table 1

Finite size analysis data obtained from (A.2). Values of reveal range of order within nematic structures. We used different histories of samples (FQH and TQH) and different values of the external field . Values , , and reveal LRO, QLRO, and SRO, respectively. , , and .
