Abstract
The defects in gamma-irradiated silica glass were investigated using t he pulsed ESR technique. By exciting the spin packets both selectively and nonselectively, it was found that spin relaxation was induced mai nly by the dipole-dipole interaction between electron spins of the ide ntical species. By analyzing the dipole-dipole interaction between ele ctron spins, the flip-flop phenomenon between them was found to be the main cause of electron spin relaxation.
