| Abstract: | A lattice model of long hard rods with a nearest neighbour attraction proportional to the length of overlap is considered. It is shown, that in the van der Waals approximation the model exhibits non only the isotropic and nematic phases obtained with the approximative treatment of the hard rod interaction but also a crystalline phase. |
