✦ Synopsis

This paper summarizes the equations for calculating nuclear spin relaxation times and nuclear Overhauser effects. The relaxation equations deal with the dipolar, quadrupolar, scalar, chemical shift anisotropy, paramagnetic, and spin-rotation mechanisms for the simplest case of isotropic reorientation of rigid molecules. All equations are defined using consistent units, showing the similarities among various terms and giving numerical examples.
