Weakly exchange-coupled biradicals have attracted much attention in terms of their DNP application in NMR spectroscopy for biological systems or the use of synthetic electron-spin qubits. Pulse-ESR based electron spin nutation (ESN) spectroscopy applied to biradicals is generally treated as transition moment spectroscopy from the theoretical side, illustrating that it is a powerful and facile t...

We report on the development and utilization of a double split-ring microwave resonator for uniform and efficient coupling of microwave magnetic field into nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in a diamond over a mm(2) area. Uniformity and magnitude of delivered microwave field were measured using the Rabi nutation experiment on arrays of diamond nanowires with ensemble NV centers. An average Rabi nut...

Early telemetry from the spin-stabilized IMAGE spacecraft indicated that the vehicle’s initial nutation was not decaying. This behavior was especially puzzling because the spacecraft’s passive nutation damper behaved as expected while IMAGE was attached to the spinning upper stage. The lack of damping was also puzzling because the damper was a tubular ring partially filled with liquid mercury; ...

Ethylene influences a number of processes in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) through the action of five receptors. In this study, we used high-resolution, time-lapse imaging to examine the long-term effects of ethylene on growing, etiolated Arabidopsis seedlings. These measurements revealed that ethylene stimulates nutations of the hypocotyls with an average delay in onset of over 6 h. The n...

The relationship between the apical hook and stem nutation in etiolated Alaska pea (Pisum sativum L. cv Alaska) seedlings was explored. The hook and maximum nutational displacement have the same plane of symmetry, and both are affected by light acting through phytochrome. However, the two processes do not appear to be obligatorily coupled. Light effects on nutation involve at least two componen...

Three most long and dense VLBI nutation series obtained at the Goddard Space Flight Center, Institute of Applied Astronomy, and U.S. Naval Observatory were used for investigation of the Free Core Nutation (FCN) contribution to the celestial pole offset. Some recent studies have showed that the FCN period or/and phase does not remain constant, but varies in a rather wide range of about 410–490 d...

The currently adopted strategy of EOP estimation from VLBI is to estimate six parameters: UT1, UT1 rate, pole positions and nutation o sets for each 24-hour session independently. Then the resulting time series of raw Earth orientation parameters are ltered and a regression analysis is performed in order to obtain nutation coe cients, polhode of the pole and other physical parameters. Thus, the...

The effect of dipolar and exchange interactions within pairs of paramagnetic electronic states on Pauliblockade-controlled spin-dependent transport and recombination rates during magnetic resonant spin excitation is studied numerically using the superoperator Liouville-space formalism. The simulations reveal that spin-Rabi nutation induced by magnetic resonance can control transition rates whic...

We report a new line-narrowing effect associated with triple-quantum resonance in a two-level NMR system. The experiment was carried out in the rotating frame on (19)F nuclei in Teflon; namely, the magnetization is spin-locked along the RF field and the triple-quantum resonance is induced by the oscillating field perpendicular to the RF field. We observed that the decay time of the triple-quant...
