We present computer simulation studies of the model chiral liquid crystal as introduced by Memmer [1 2]. The analysis of resulting structures is based on the two-point correlation modes [3] and on calculations of the excess specific heat. Our aim is to characterize the isotropic phases and to search for a critical point between the isotropic liquid and BPIII.
