摘要：

Strong anomalies in the Raman scattered intensity of an internal mode have been detected in the S-C alpha*, phase of C8 tolane. Based upon an orientational order parameter analysis, they are attributed to large tilt angle fluctuations by comparison with those encountered in the neighbouring smectic A and smectic C* phases.
