Carr-Purcell Meiboom-Gill CPMG

We can perform spatially resolved Carr-Purcell-Meiboom-Gill (CPMG) experiments, and then, for each voxel, use magnetization intensities at the echo times to estimate the corresponding number density function, P(t), which represents the amount of fluid associated with the characteristic relaxation time t. The corresponding intrinsic magnetization for the voxel, M0, is calculated by... 

Measurement of a true T2 can be obtained using a spin-echo pulse sequence, such as the Carr-Purcell-Meiboom-Gill (CPMG) sequence, which minimizes the loss of phase coherence caused by inhomogeneities (Kemp, 1986). 

T2 measurements usually employ either Carr-Purcell-Meiboom-Gill (CPMG) [7, 8] spin-echo pulse sequences or experiments that measure spin relaxation (Tlp) in the rotating frame. The time delay between successive 180° pulses in the CPMG pulse sequence is typically set to 1 ms or shorter to minimize the effects of evolution under the heteronuc-lear scalar coupling between 1H and 15N spins [3]. 

From Carr-Purcell-Meiboom-Gill (CPMG) measurements, three amorphous components were obtained as rigid (shortest T2), intermediate and mobile... 

Ti reports on fast dynamics on a timescale of ps-ns, whereas T2 relaxation depends on both fast and slower dynamics (ps-ns and xs-ms). The experimentally measured T2 relaxation times include an exchange contribution that can be measured by a Carr-Purcell-Meiboom-Gill (CPMG) pulse train (25, 26) or an effective spin-lock field (27-29). The combination of T2 and Tip measurements allows determination of the contribution of chemical exchange to the relaxation time. Eurthermore, relaxation dispersion experiments have been developed to measure slow time-scale xs-ms dynamic processes (30-35). 

Static imaging experiments conducted on fluid-saturated samples are used to determine porosity distributions. Carr-Purcell-Meiboom-Gill (CPMG) imaging is used to evaluate the spin density. The local relaxation is modeled in order to estimate the intrinsic magnetization intensity, which is proportional to the amount of saturating fluid. 

The T2 of the mobile phase is determined by a Carr-Purcell-Meiboom-Gill (CPMG) pulse sequence in that work. Based on an easily accessible NMR parameter, i.e., T2, the above empirical correlation, which is claimed by the... 

When NMR was performed the media hydrated with 1 1 H20 D20 were packed in 10 mm NMR tubes to reach a sample height of 8 to 10 mm. A 90° pulse WALTZ sequence was used with acquisition parameters 7.45 to 780 /AS pulse width, 1500 to 20,000 Hz pulse width, 0.012 to 0.166 sec acquisition time and recycle delay > 5Ti. Spin-spin relaxation time (T2) was determined with a Carr-Purcell-Meiboom-Gill (CPMG) pulse sequence with interpulsed spacing (t) ranging from 5 to 500 ms. At least eight different T values were used for each T2 determination. 

NMR molecular mobility Relaxation times ( H NMR Ti and T2) determination was carried out with a Bruker Avance 300 Spectrometer (Bruker Instruments, Billerica, MA, USA). Samples were packed into 5-mm diameter NMR tubes. Ti was measured using an inversion recovery (Derome, 1987) and T2 with a Carr Purcell Meiboom Gill (CPMG Carr and Purcell, 1954 Meiboom and Gill, 1958) pulse sequences. All data were best fit with mono-exponential relaxation with > 0.99 in all samples. 

Carr-Purcell-Meiboom-Gill (CPMG) experiment. An experiment wherein the net magnetization is allowed tipped into the xy plane, and subjected to a series (or train) of RF pulses and delays to refocus the net magnetization. Maintaining the net magnetization in the xy plane allows the measurement of the T2 relaxation time.
