SELF-QUENCHED SUPER-REGENERATIVE DETECTOR FOR NUCLEAR MAGNETIC RESONANCE.

Abstract

The self-quenched super-regenerator has been used to obtain nuclear magnetic resonance signals and has been found to be simple and sensitive. Experiments with the use of a r.f. coil capable of being rotated with respect to the magnetic field have indicated that the apparatus could be made to respond to induction or absorption. The sensitivity of the apparatus has been determined and is about ten times less than ultimate possible with the bridge method.
