Popis: Nuclear magnetic resonance measurements of the proton spin-lattice relaxation rate T1-1 for A15-type Nb3AlHx (x = 0.13, 1.77 and 2.75) have been performed over the temperature range 20-420 K and the resonance frequency range 13-90 MHz. The experimental results are analysed to evaluate the electronic (Korringa) contributions to T1-1 and the parameters of hydrogen diffusion. It is found that the electronic contribution to the relaxation rate decreases with increasing H content. The effective activation energies for H diffusion derived from the high-temperature relaxation rate data are 0.21 eV for x = 0.13 and 0.30 eV for x = 1.77 and 2.75. The behaviour of T1-1 at low temperatures (T
