In spectroscopy, it is conventional to treat pulses much stronger than the linewidth as delta-functions. In NMR, this assumption leads to the prediction that pi pulses do not refocus the dipolar coupling. However, NMR spin echo measurements…
NMR spin echo measurements of C-13 in C60, Y-89 in Y2O3, and Si-29 in silicon are shown to defy conventional expectations when more that one pi pulse is used. Multiple pi-pulse echo trains may either freeze our or accelerate the decay of…
Puzzling anomalies previously observed in multipulse NMR experiments in natural abundance 29Si [A.E. Dementyev, D. Li, K. MacLean, and S.E. Barrett, Phys. Rev. B 68, 153302 (2003)] such as long-lived spin echoes and even-odd asymmetries,…
We report an observation of extremely long-lived spin states in systems of dipolar-coupled nuclear spins in solids. The 'suspended echo' experiment uses a simple stimulated echo pulse sequence and creates non-equilibrium states which live…
NMR spin echo measurements of $^{29}$Si in Silicon powders have uncovered a variety of surprising phenomena that appear to be independent of doping. These surprises include long tails and even-odd asymmetry in Carr-Purcell-Meiboom-Gill…
The application of Carr-Purcell-Meiboom-Gill (CPMG) $\pi-$trains for dynamically decoupling a system from its environment has been extensively studied in a variety of physical systems. When applied to dipolar solids, recent experiments have…
New NMR experiments reveal the origin of the "pseudocoherence" that leads to long tails in some Carr-Purcell-Meiboom-Gill (CPMG) sequences in contrast with the decay of a standard Hahn echo. We showed in [M.B Franzoni and P.R. Levstein,…
Solids and rigid tissues such as bone, ligaments, and tendons, typically appear dark in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), which is due to the extremely short-lived proton nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) signals. This short lifetime is due…
We demonstrate that CPMG and XYXY decoupling sequences with non-ideal $\pi$ pulses can reduce dipolar interactions between spins of the same species in solids. Our simulations of pulsed electron spin resonance (ESR) experiments show that…
Dense spin ensembles in solids present a natural platform for studying quantum many-body dynamics. Multiple-pulse coherent control can be used to manipulate the magnetic dipolar interaction between the spins to engineer their dynamics.…
Recently several long-period radio transients have been discovered, with strongly polarised coherent radio pulses appearing on timescales between tens to thousands of seconds [1,2]. In some cases the radio pulses have been interpreted as…
We study the properties of spin systems realized by cold polar molecules interacting via dipole-dipole interactions in two dimensions. Using a spin wave theory, that allows for the full treatment of the characteristic long-distance tail of…
Based on a modified Anderson-Weiss approximation (N. Fatkullin, A. Gubaidullin, C. Mattea, S.Stapf, J. Chem. Phys. 137 (2012), 224907) an improved theory of proton spin solid echo in polymer melts is formulated, taking into account…
We show experimentally and describe theoretically how a conventional magnetic resonance Hahn echo sequence can lead to a self-stimulated pulse echo train when an inhomogeneously broadened spin ensemble is coupled to a resonator. Effective…
The work is devoted to the problem of multiple signals of nuclear spin echoes in magnets, excited by a series of radio-frequency (RF) arbitrary duration pulses exceeding the free induction decay time. The quantum-statistical approach based…
It is demonstrated that the time evolution of the electron-nuclear polarization transfer process during pulsed dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) can be reversed on a microsecond timescale, leading to the observation of DNP echoes. The DNP…
