Abstract
Using refractive index and density data for nematogenic compounds Octyl benzoic acid (OBA) and Nonyl benzoic acid (NBA), orientational order and hence distribution function has been determined. From this, the higher order parameter <P4>has been estimated for these two compounds. The physical interpretation of these parameters <P2>and <P4>has been given in terms of statistical quantities like variance and kurtosis.
