✦ Synopsis
Theoretical and experimental results are presented demonstrating that the slice intensity resulting from a self-refocusing 270" Gaussian pulse (L. Elmsley and G. Bodenhausen, Magn. Reson. in Med. 10, 273, 1989) is approximately 60% of that following an appropriately refocused 90" GaUSSian pulse.

Recently, we introduced a new numerical approach to the design and optimization of NMR selective pulses, which we have christened "SPINCALC" (J. T. Ngo and P. G. Morris, Biochem. Soc. Trans. 14, 1271 (1986); J. T. Ngo and P. G. Morris, Magn. Reson. Med. 5, 217 (1987]. The first practical application
