Dynamic polarization and relaxation of protons in 1,6-hexanediol and 1,8-octanediol: a feasibility study for a frozen spin polarized target

Results are given of an experiment to test 1,6-hexanediol and 1,8- octanediol for their suitability as materials for polarized proton targets. The samples are doped with 15% Cr/sup V/-glycol complexes. Polarization results are reported at temperatures between 0.4 K and 1.0 K. Relaxation times in dif...

Sumario:Results are given of an experiment to test 1,6-hexanediol and 1,8- octanediol for their suitability as materials for polarized proton targets. The samples are doped with 15% Cr/sup V/-glycol complexes. Polarization results are reported at temperatures between 0.4 K and 1.0 K. Relaxation times in different magnetic fields are measured for hexanediol down to 270 mK, for octanediol down to 54 mK. Conclusions are drawn for the parameters of a frozen spin target. (28 refs).
