Variational studies of quantum liquid crystal phases of 2DEG

The ground state of a nematic phase of the 2DEG at filling fraction$\nu =1 \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {1 2}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} 2$is studied. The pair distribution function and interaction energy are calculated for a wavefunction having the Jastrow form for the correlation part of$\prod\limits_{i
