In the modulated phase the spatially averaged -magnitude is zero, and so we will instead compare fluctuations in the -\emph{amplitude} at $q_*$ to the magnitude of that amplitude. Defining the -field $\alpha$ by $\eta(x)=\alpha(x)e^{-iq_*x_3}$, it follows that in the -modulated phase $\langle\alpha(x)\rangle=\alpha_0$ for $\alpha_0^2=|\delta -\tilde r|/4u$. In the modulated phase, the $q$-dependant fluctuations in -$\alpha$ are given by -\begin{equation} - G_\alpha(q)=k_BT\chi_\alpha(q)=\frac1{c_\parallel q_\parallel^2+D_\perp(4q_*^2q_\perp^2+q_\perp^4)+2|\delta r|}, -\end{equation} -An estimate of the Ginzburg criterion is then given by the temperature at which -$V_\xi^{-1}\int_{V_\xi}G_\alpha(0,x)\,dx=\langle\delta\alpha^2\rangle_{V_\xi}\simeq\langle\alpha\rangle^2=\alpha_0^2$, -where $V_\xi=\xi_\perp\xi_\parallel^2$ is a correlation volume. The parameter $u$ -can be replaced in favor of the jump in the specific heat at the transition -using -\begin{equation} - c_V=-T\frac{\partial^2f}{\partial T^2} - =\begin{cases}0&T>T_c\\Ta^2/12 u&T
