S. Stapf et al., FIELD-CYCLING NMR RELAXOMETRY OF LIQUIDS CONFINED IN POROUS-GLASS - EVIDENCE FOR LEVY-WALKS, Magnetic resonance imaging, 14(7-8), 1996, pp. 841-846
The frequency dependence of the longitudinal relaxation time T-1(nu) o
f different liquids confined to microporous glass features a distinct
difference between polar and nonpolar adsorbates, This finding is expl
ained by ''weak'' and ''strong'' adsorption, respectively. The T-1 dis
persion of polar adsorbates can be described with the aid of Levy walk
statistics of ''bulk-mediated surface diffusion'' recently suggested
