129 Xe Relaxation and Rabi Oscillations

Více o knize

The thesis presents groundbreaking longitudinal nuclear relaxation measurements of solid 129Xe at 77 K, showcasing unprecedented reproducibility and highlighting variations in relaxation based on condensation methods. These findings are crucial for advancing the generation and storage of hyperpolarized 129Xe, particularly for lung MRI applications. Additionally, it incorporates a refined theoretical framework, including enhancements to established Raman-phonon scattering theory, to address inconsistencies observed in earlier studies.
