Popis: The Zeeman-quadrupole Hamiltonian spectrum of hyperfine optical ground states of Pr +3 : LaF 3 is mapped out by monitoring resonant laser transmission through a single crystal over a wide range of magnetic fields. Magnetic field sweep or rf resonance excitation applied during optical pumping produces variations in hole burning which indicate nuclear spin population transfer between Pr +3 states. Spin-spin cross relaxation between Pr +3 and F spin reservoirs and its influence on the Pr +3 NMR spectrum is detected.
