Popis: Nuclear magnetic resonance measurements of the proton spin-lattice relaxation rate in C15-type HfMo2H0.4 have been performed over the temperature range 20-420 K and the resonance frequency range 13-90 MHz. The temperature dependence of the relaxation rate is found to exhibit two peaks. This is consistent with a coexistence of two types of H hopping with different frequency scales. The experimental results are analysed to evaluate the parameters of hydrogen motion and the electronic (Korringa) contribution to the relaxation rate. Our results support the idea that the ratio of the characteristic frequencies of the two types of H motion in C15 compounds AB2 is related to the ratio of the metallic radii of elements A and B.
