Fig. 4.4.5 Gradual blurring (staring on locations marked by arrow) of MRI spin-tagging spin-echo images of Taylor—Couette—Poiseuille flow as the axial flow is increased (from left to right). The images correspond to longitudinal sections of the flow and the axial flow is upwards. The dashed line marks the location of one of the stationary helical vortices which characterize the SHV mode. This flow regime corresponds to the transition from the SHV (steady) to partial PTV (unsteady) regimes as Re increases, as shown in Figure 4.4.2.

Fig. 4.4.7 (a) Reconstruction of the Stationary Helical Vortex (SHV) mode from MRI data acquired with the spin-tagging spin-echo sequence [27], The axial flow is upwards and the inner cylinder is rotating clockwise. The two helices represent the counter-rotating vortex streamtubes. (b) Construction of Poincare map for SHV [41]. The orbit of a typical particle is... 

Equation (1.2), in turn, can be replaced by an equivalent expression explicitly involving summation on the infinite spins surrounding a tagged spin. This expression involves only the parameters defining the dipolar interaction and the geometry of the crystal lattice under examination. 

The majority of octahedral ferric complexes exhibit simple Curie or Curie-Weiss magnetic behavior (i.e., magnetic susceptibility 1/7. They can be classified as either "high spin or "low spin. In high-spin complexes, the lowest term (ground state) is Aig, which corresponds to the tag eg2 configuration. The low-spin complexes have the Tgg term as... 

One possibility to visualize fluid transport directly in the fixed bed by means of a series of time-encoded displacement images is given by the spin tagging technique... 

Fig. 4.4.2 The discrete data points represent Taylor-Couette-Poiseuille flow regimes observed with MRI for r = 0.5 [41]. The curved boundaries were obtained for r = 0.77 with optical techniques [38]. The two inserts show MRI spin-tagging FLASH images of the SHV and PTV hydrodynamic modes.

There are many specific ways to generate equally spaced tags but they are all based on the same principle of manipulating the rf pulses to generate equally spaced bands of rf radiation in the frequency domain. It is well known that under ordinary conditions, meaning normal levels of nuclear spin excitation, the frequency spectrum of the rf excitation pulse(s) is approximately the Fourier transform of the pulses in the time domain. Thus, a single slice can be generated in the... 

We have studied demulsifier association by the electron spin resonance (ESR) technique. The spin label is covalently attached (Figure 5a) to the demulsifier. Normally, the ESR spectrum of a freely tumbling nitroxyl radical consists of three sharp peaks (Figure 5b). However, the spectrum for a tagged ethoxylated nonyl phenol resin (Figure 6a or 6b) shows only a single broad peak.
