Recently, numerous studies reported the application of homonuclear and heteronuclear selective recoupling schemes on uniformly labelled ligand interacting with membrane receptors. The polarization exchange curves were fitted with the two-spin model and showed that it is possible to determine intemuclear distances up to 4.5 A.118... 

Fig. 11.7 a Pulse sequence for rotational-resonance recoupling of homonuclear spin pairs, b The spinning frequency is matched to the isotropic chemical-shift difference, and one of the resonances is selectively inverted and the polarization exchange measured as a function of the mixing time, c The difference polarization as a function of the mixing can be evaluated to give the dipolar coupling constant. 

Fig. 11.14 Diagram showing the polarization exchange curves obtained between 40,41 (A), 37, 39 (B) and 36, 39 (C) in /7-amyloid peptide [34-42]. Data obtained from samples diluted with unlabeled peptide (open circles) and undiluted (closed circles) indicate the presence of inter-strand contacts used in subsequent modeling (a). The model proposed on the basis of these measurements and others given in Tab. 11.3, is shown (b). (Adapted with permission from Ref. [154]).

Sin< Eqs. (136)-(138) for a particular subsystem er, in terms of orbitals < iff(r), look the same as Eqs. (126)-(128) in terms of spin orbitals < j(jc), all steps leading to the previous result (134) can be repeated again, leading now to the spin-polarized exchange potential... 

As the exchange energy, the polarization-exchange energy (.poi-txch is also nonadditive. The standard PT cannot be applied to the calculation of the poi-exch- The reason is that the antisymmetrized functions of zeroth order (Ai/>o. ..) are not eigenfunctions of the unperturbed Hamiltonian Ho as long as the operator Ho does not commute with the antisymmetrizer operator A. Many successful approaches for the symmetry adapted perturbation theory (SAPT) have been developed for a detailed discussion see chapter 3 in book, the modern achievements in the SAPT are described in reviews .

The present survey has outlined some properties of porous crystals as diffusion media. It has shown some aspects which have been studied insufficiently, such as concentration dependence of D, which may be very important for catalysis at intracrystalline sites. Many more accurate determinations of differential diffusion coefficients are required to give added understanding of the role of concentration, chain length (of paraffins), polarity, exchange ions, channel geometry, and chemical dam-... 

Relaxation-mediated magnetization transfer is often dominated by the effects of a strongly coupled proton bath. The influence of the corresponding homonuclear and heteronuclear dipolar interactions may indirectly enhance the rate of polarization exchange between rare spins such as by a process called proton-driven spin diffusion... 

The term spin diffusion has been coined by Bloembergen [1] to characterize the polarization-exchange process in a strongly dipolar-coupled many-spin system. As pointed out by Bloembergen, this process leads to a spatial spread of polarization originating on a given spin that mimics, under certain conditions, a diffusion process. In a true diffusion process, the entropy increases monotonically. In the exact quantum description of the spin-diffusion process, however, the entropy is conserved and the process is, in principle, fully reversible. 

There are several ways to enhance spin diffusion in such systems. One can broaden the zero-quantum line to such an extent that the intensity at frequency zero is non vanishing for all relevant chemical-shift differences. However, due to the normalization of the zero-quantum line, a broad line implies that the intensity/,y(0) is low and that the spin diffusion proceeds slowly. A broadening of the zero-quantum line can often naturally be achieved by the coupling to a strongly-coupled proton spin system in so-called proton-driven spin diffusion while the form of the heteronuclear dipolar-coupling Hamiltonian (Equation (4.3)) prevents polarization exchange with the protons, the... 

This allows one to perform selective experiments where only the spins of two selected resonances undergo polarization exchange. 

We have performed a model calculation of the electron structure of AF Cr for two types of the unit cell extended along the axes Y and Z, which corresponded, respectively, to the longitudinal and transversal spin density waves (5PW and SDWj ). Recall that the magnetic moment of the system was Z-directed. Additionally, we have varied the number of atoms per unit cell N = 2,4,8,20, and40, which corresponded to = 0,0.5,0.25,0.1,0.05. In all instances the same values of F(r) iuid Ao(r) were used. The spin-polarizing exchange part of the potential AF(r) for different atoms of the unit ceil was defined according to (18). The number of terms in expansion (10) amounted to 12N. 

HP xenon diffusion measurements can also be used to determine S/V ratios in porous materials, including soft materials. Extending the previous work done in liquids by Stejskal and Tanner,Butler et al determine 5/F ratio from the rate of xenon polarization exchange between the gas phase and xenon dissolved in the solid phase. This method was applied to porous polymer samples, but applications to the characterization of lung spaces are envisioned.

The second-order exchange energy of the SRS theory is a result of the antisymmetrization of the first-order polarization function and is accordingly referred to as the polarization-exchange energy. In the approximation it is given by the following expression...
