- The heliconical tilt angle, estimated from the orientational distribution functions (ODFs), in all cases increases from zero at the N - Ntb transition to approximately 27{\\deg} at about 40 K below the transition, in excellent agreement with freeze fracture transmission electron microscopy results of Chen and the birefringence results of Meyer.
