Popis: Spin‐lattice relaxation in a paramagnetic salt at liquid‐helium temperatures has been studied by observing the time dependence of the magnetization in a pulsed magnetic field. The nearly trapezoidal field pulse can be kept constant during 0.3 sec for the largest field of 15 MA/m (200 kOe) and it is possible to determine relaxation times between 10−2 and about 10 sec.The spin‐lattice relaxation in CuCs2(SO4)2·6H2O is found to be governed by the direct process between 1.8° and 4.2°K, the field dependence of the relaxation time being H1.6. Below 1.8°K the relaxation rate suddenly becomes much slower, which is ascribed to an increase of the wavelength for phonon‐phonon interaction, such that phonon‐heating effects predominate below 1.5°K.
