Abstract

We report on the mechanism of orientational freezing in ortho–para–hydrogen mixtures. We argue that instead of the Zeeman–type uncorrelated intrinsic field, which dominats at high temperatures, the molecular ordering field, strongly correlated by the reaction Onsager–type field, drives the cooperative short–range ordering into the glass–like states. This mechanism is in accord with the observed unsaturated orientational order caused by moderation of the ordering field
