Dissipative dynamics of multiple-quantum NMR coherences in two-spin systems.

Multiple-quantum (MQ) NMR experiments were performed at a special orientation of a hambergite (BeBOOH) single crystal, which consists of alternating zigzag proton chains. At the chosen orientation, one of the dipolar coupling constants in the chain becomes zero and the system becomes a set of well-isolated dipolar coupled spin pairs. The relaxation of the spin pairs in the MQ NMR experiment was studied on the basis of the Lindblad equation.

Solid-state multiple quantum NMR in quantum information processing: exactly solvable models.

Multiple quantum (MQ) NMR is an effective tool for the generation of a large cluster of correlated particles, which, in turn, represent a basis for quantum information processing devices. Studying the available exactly solvable models clarifies many aspects of the quantum information. In this study, we consider two exactly solvable models in the MQ NMR experiment: (i) the isolated system of two spin-1/2 particles (dimers) and (ii) the large system of equivalent spin-1/2 particles in a nanopore.

Numerical analysis of relaxation times of multiple quantum coherences in the system with a large number of spins.

We study the decay of multiple quantum (MQ) NMR coherences in systems with the large number of equivalent spins. As being created on the preparation period of the MQ NMR experiment, they decay due to the dipole-dipole interactions (DDI) on the evolution period of this experiment. It is shown that the relaxation time decreases with the increase in MQ coherence order (according to the known results) and in the number of spins.

Multiple quantum NMR of spin-carrying molecules in nanopores: high order corrections to the two-spin/two-quantum Hamiltonian.

This paper is devoted to multiple quantum (MQ) NMR spectroscopy in nanopores filled by a gas of spin-carrying molecules (s = 1/2) in a strong external magnetic field. It turns out that the high symmetry of the spin system in nanopores yields a possibility to overcome the problem of the exponential growth of the Hilbert space dimension with an increase in the number of spins and to investigate MQ NMR dynamics in systems consisting of several hundred spins. We investigate the dependence of the MQ coherence intensities on their order (the profile of the MQ coherence intensities) for a spin system governed by the standard MQ NMR Hamiltonian (the nonsecular two-spin/two-quantum Hamiltonian) together with the second order correction of average Hamiltonian theory.
