Distant dipolar fields among nuclear spins on macroscopic scales in the gas phase are reported for the first time. Their observation via interatomic multiple quantum coherences requires high nuclear spin polarization corresponding to spin temperatures of a few mK, which is generated in laser-polarized 3He, and proper control of the gas diffusion through a heavier buffer gas. This combination of physics at low and ambient temperatures opens up new ways of studying the relative translational diffusion of atoms and of gas diffusion in structures with a large range of length scales.

Theoretical and simulated analyses of selective homonuclear dipolar recoupling sequences serve as primary tools for understanding and determining the robustness of these sequences under various conditions. In this article, we investigate the recently proposed first-order dipolar recoupling sequence known as MODIST (Modest Offset Difference Internuclear Selective Transfer). We evaluate the MODIST transfer efficiency, assessing its dependence on rf-field strengths and the number of simulated spins, extending up to 10 spins.

Parahydrogen-induced polarization (PHIP) is a potent technique for generating target molecules with high nuclear spin polarization. The PHIP process involves a chemical reaction between parahydrogen and a target molecule, followed by the transformation of nuclear singlet spin order into magnetization of a designated target nucleus through magnetic field manipulations. Although the singlet-to-magnetization polarization transfer process works effectively at moderate concentrations, it is observed to become much less efficient at high molar polarization, defined as the product of polarization and concentration.

Pulse electron double resonance (PELDOR), also called double electron-electron resonance (DEER), is a technique capable of measuring the strength of electron spin dipolar interactions, revealing spin-spin distance distributions in ordered and disordered solid materials. Previous work has shown that PELDOR signals acquire an out-of-phase component under conditions of high electron spin polarization, such as at low temperatures and high fields. In this paper, we show theoretically and experimentally that the size and sign of this effect depends on the macroscopic shape of the sample and its orientation in the external magnetic field.

We report the observations and the analysis of a pulsed solid state sustained maser generated by proton spins hyperpolarized by Dynamic Nuclear Polarization (DNP) at cryogenic temperatures. Similar unconventional behaviour was observed recently [Weber , , 2019, , 21278-21286], with induction decays exhibiting multiple asymmetric maser pulses for short time (100 ms) and persistent for tens of second, when the spins are polarized negatively. We present new evidence of such DNP NMR masers, and shed light on previously observed but unexplained features of these masers through simulations of the non-linear spin dynamics using the Bloch-Maxwell-Provotrov (BMP) equations for radiation damping and DNP, and taking into account the (distant) dipolar field.

A leading nonlinear effect in magnonics is the interaction that splits a high-frequency magnon into two low-frequency magnons with conserved linear momentum. Here, we report experimental observation of nonlocal three-magnon scattering between spatially separated magnetic systems, viz. a CoFeB nanowire and a yttrium iron garnet (YIG) thin film.
