Radiation damping

  "id": "MLC-T-CHM-009822",
  "term": "Radiation damping",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "The loss of energy from a precessing nuclear magnetization to the surrounding environment through the emission of radiofrequency radiation. This phenomenon occurs when the ensemble of nuclear spins collectively radiates electromagnetic energy. It is a relaxation mechanism that contributes to the decay of the nuclear magnetic resonance signal.",
