On the theory of nuclear spin relaxation in hydrogen gas

The generally accepted, though approximate, theory of the relaxation time T₁ of the nuclear spin system in ortho H₂ at low temperatures was developed by Schwinger (see Bloembergen (1948)). In this thesis Schwinger's theory is generalized to the case of arbitrary temperatures. An expression fo...
