ABSTRACT In this short review we summarise already published results to manifest very important role of high order elastic terms in the formation of colloidal structures in nematic liquid crystals (NLC). We reveal that every colloidal particle in nematics can be effectively represented as a triad of nonzero elastic moments. Usually colloidal particles in NLCs are treated with their elastic dipole and/or quadrupole moments only. But we demonstrate that octupole, hexadecapole and even 64-pole moments play an important role as well and determine parameters of different 1D, 2D and even 3D colloidal crystals in NLCs. In general the triad of the first three nonzero elastic moments can describe almost all colloidal structures observed so far. Dipole particles should be considered as hard spheroids with a triad of the dipole, quadrupole and octupole moments. Quadrupole particles should be treated as hard spheres with a triad of quadrupole, hexadecapole and 64-pole elastic moments PACS numbers: 61.30.Dk, 82.70.Dd, 64.70.M− GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT
