## 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 nuc
## 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
## Abstract Tendons exhibit viscoelastic mechanical behavior under tensile loading. The elasticity arises from the collagen chains that form fibrils, while the viscous response arises from the interaction of the water with the solid matrix. Therefore, an understanding of the behavior of water in re
