NMR in copper-Oxide Metals

Condensed Matter 2009-10-28 v1

Abstract

The anomalous part of the NMR relaxation rate of coppernuclei in the normal state of copper-oxide metals is calculated using the orbital magnetic parts of the fluctuations derived in a recent theory to explain the long wavelength transport anomalies. Oxygen and Yttrium reside on lattice sites at which the anomalous contribution is absent at all hole densities. The frequency, momentum dependence, and the form-factor of the fluctuations is predicted,which is verifiable by inelastic neutron scattering experiments.
