Abstract
Scaling relationships for NMR spin-lattice reIaxation time T-1 and Gau ssian transverse relaxation time T-2G are reviewed and applied to anal yse experiments in the normal state of YBa2Cu4O8. Studies of T-2G in t he superconducting state are analysed using the theory of Pines and Wr obel to show a preference for d-state orbital pairing over anisotropic s-state. Data on C-13 NMR in the normal and superconducting state of the two dimensional organic conductor (ET)(2)Cu[N(CN)(2)]Br are presen ted and shown to have great similarity to that of the cuprates.
