A momentum-dependent interaction has been used by Torrey to explain the Xe129 nuclear spin relaxation measurements of Carr and co-workers. T1 is calculated here for this interaction for gases and liquids using the constant-acceleration approximation. The gas results are in good agreement with Torrey's exact calculation for a gas of hard spheres, and have the advantage of being usable with more realistic interatomic potentials. The results for the liquid are in good agreement with experiment.

Understanding solid-fluid interactions within porous materials is critical for their efficient utilisation across chemical reaction and separation processes. However, detailed characterisation of interfacial phenomena within such systems is hampered by their optically opaque nature. Motivated by the need to bridge this capability gap, we detail here the application of low magnetic field 2D <sup>1</sup>H nuclear spin relaxation measurements as a non-invasive probe of sorbate/sorbent interactions, exploring the relaxation characteristics exhibited by liquid adsorbates confined to a model mesoporous silica. For the first time, we demonstrate the capacity of such measurements to distinguish functional group-specific relaxation phenomena across a diverse range of protic adsorbates of wide importance as solvents, reagents, and hydrogen carriers, with distinct relaxation environments assigned to the alkyl and hydroxyl moieties of the confined liquids. Uniquely, this relaxation behaviour is shown to correlate with adsorbate acidity, with the observed relationship rationalised on the basis of surface-adsorbate proton exchange dynamics.

We describe our resistively detected nuclear-spin relaxation measurements on bilayer electron systems in double quantum wells. The measurements were carried out to study the compressible-incompressible transition at total filling factor νtot = 1 and the canted antiferromagnetic order and its Goldstone mode predicted for νtot = 2. The data demonstrate how nuclear-spin relaxation can shed light on spin/pseudospin order and associated phase transitions that may not be visible through conventional transport or optical measurements.

Nuclear spin relaxation measurements are used to measure quantitatively the amount of oxygen present in methane. An upper limit of 2.5 × 10−4% is placed on the amount of oxygen present in methane after treatment with a getter made of misch metal.

ABSTRACTDiffusivity D and nuclear spin relaxation times T1 and T2 have been measured by NMR to 4.0 GPa in methanol, using a diamond anvil cell probe. In pure MeOH, D−1 and T2 show essentially identical activation volumes. However, these are ∼18% larger than the activation volume of viscosity. By relating these observations to an average molecular correlation time a pressure-dependent infinite-frequency shear modulus G∞ can be inferred, using two independent approaches. The relation between diffusivity and viscosity shows increasing departure from Stokes-Einstein behavior with increasing pressure, if a constant hydrodynamic radius is assumed. This departure is attributed to the pressure dependence of G∞, and can be described empirically by a simple modification of the Stokes-Einstein relation.
