摘要
The hydrodynamic equations for a narrow slab when the state of nematic liquid crystal is deformed slightly by a magnetic field are solved. Then the torque exerted on the torsional oscillator in which the slab is contained is calculated, and the changes in the resonant frequency as a function of the magnetic field are determined.
