Long-lived states, which are slowly relaxing configurations of nuclear spins, have been shown to alleviate this limitation. Long-lived states have decay lifetimes TLLS significantly exceeding the longitudinal relaxation time T1, in some cases by an order of magnitude. Here we present an experimental case of a long-lived state for a 15N labelled molecular system in solution. We observe a strongly biexponential decay for the long-lived state, with the lifetime of the slowly relaxing component exceeding 40 minutes, ?21 times longer than the spin-lattice relaxation time T1. The lifetime of the long-lived state was revealed by using a dedicated two-field NMR spectrometer capable of fast sample shuttling between high and low magnetic fields, and the application of a resonant radiofrequency field at low magnetic field. The relaxation characteristics of the long-live... dc.Format: text/HTML viewport: width=device-width,initial-scale=1,maximum-scale=1, user-scalable=0 dc:title: Field-cycling long-lived-state NMR of 15N2 spin pairs: Molecular Physics: Vol 117, No 7-8 Content-Encoding: UTF-8 dc.Creator: Stuart J.
