Abstract
A general expression for the magnetization decay of a multipulse group is derived. This formula is applied to a threeβcomponent model of molecular motions in polymer melts. The influence of the several components on the magnetization decay is discussed. The relation of the effective nuclear magnetic relaxation time T~2e~ to the AndersonβWeiss formula is also shown, and an analytical expression for the transverse relaxation in melts is derived. Finally T~2e~ is compared with the relaxation time in the rotating frame T~1Ο~ in the melt. The theoretical results for T~2e~ are tested with measurements of frequency dependence in polyethylene melts.

## Abstract T1 and T2 relaxation times of agar phantoms containing Lβdopa melanin and Fe^3+^ were measured under MRI conditions. Fe^3+^ shortened T1 and T2 relaxation times. Melanin influenced relaxation times only in the presence of Fe^3+^; thus, contrast in MR images of the basal ganglia may depe
