Recent transport measurements [Churchill et al. Nature Phys. 5, 321 (2009)] found a surprisingly large, 2-3 orders of magnitude larger than usual (13)C hyperfine coupling (HFC) in (13)C enriched single-wall carbon nanotubes. We formulate the theory of the nuclear relaxation time in the framework of the Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid theory to enable the determination of the HFC from recent data by Ihara et al. [Europhys. Lett. 90, 17,004 (2010)]. Though we find that 1/T(1) is orders of magnitude enhanced with respect to a Fermi-liquid behavior, the HFC has its usual, small value. Then, we reexamine the theoretical description used to extract the HFC from transport experiments and show that similar features could be obtained with HFC-independent system parameters.

Rotational spectroscopy is an excellent tool for structure determination, which can provide additional insights into local electronic structure by investigating the hyperfine pattern due to nuclear quadrupole coupling. Jet-cooled molecules are good experimental benchmark targets for electronic structure calculations, as they are free of environmental effects. We report the rotational spectra of 2-chlorobenzaldehyde, 3-chlorobenzaldehyde, and 4-chlorobenzaldehyde, including a complete experimental description of the nuclear quadrupole coupling constants, which were previously not experimentally determined.

We introduce a computational methodology for evaluating and analyzing spin-vibration couplings in molecular systems, enabling insights into the interplay between electronic spins and molecular vibrations. By mapping ab initio electronic structure calculations onto molecular spin Hamiltonians, our approach captures those vibrational interactions potentially driving spin relaxation process. Spin-vibration couplings, derived from Holstein and Peierls terms, highlight the pivotal role of vibrational mode symmetry in spin decoherence and efficient energy dissipation.

This paper describes muon spin spectroscopy studies of 12-phosphatetraphene stabilized by a peri-trifluoromethyl group and a meso-aryl substituent. Even though the prepared solution in tetrahydrofuran (THF) was quite dilute (0.060 M) for transverse-field muon spin rotation (TF-µSR) measurements, the π-extended heavier congener of tetraphene presented a pair of signals due to a muoniated radical from which the muon hyperfine coupling constant (hfc) was determined.

Article Synopsis
- Dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) and quantum technologies utilize the spin transfer in electron-nuclear quantum systems, but larger couplings like hyperfine interactions can hinder these processes.
- The Schrieffer-Wolff transformation is applied to analyze a system of two electrons and two nuclei, focusing on polarization-transfer methods, including an energy-conserving electron-nuclear four-spin flip-flop.
- The study connects magnetic resonance and quantum information, demonstrating a model where all nuclear spins can aid in hyperpolarization without being impeded by a spin diffusion barrier in DNP.

With a view towards the development of molecular spintronics, non-linear optics, and qubits, a great amount of research effort aims to establish the factors which govern the spin classification of diradicals. Electron spin resonance (ESR) is an indispensable tool for such research. However, in some cases, the mere presence of an ESR spectrum is insufficient to ascertain that the presumed diradical is indeed a triplet state.
