✦ Synopsis
Single-crystal magnesium diboride (MgB 2 ) with a transition temperature to superconductivity of T c = 38.4 K was investigated by quadrupole perturbed 11 B nuclear magnetic resonance in a field of 9 T in the normal conducting phase. Experimental values for the electric field gradient tensor, the magnetic shift tensor, and the nuclear spin-lattice relaxation time for boron were obtained. The anisotropy of the nuclear spin-lattice relaxation and the magnetic shift were determined. A positive sign of the electric field gradient was found. Our results show good agreement with published theoretical calculations and in part with experimental nuclear magnetic resonance data from polycrystalline samples.

A T1 minimum at 216 K for Larmor frequency 90 MHz has been detected and for this minimum no analogous T, minimum according to the known quadratic dependence of the Larmor frequency 25 MHz is found. The analysis leads to the conclusion that this T1 minimum is a result of the relaxation of protons via
