Popis: We investigate experimentally the effect of time dependent magnetic fields on the spin dynamics of the Carr - Purcell - Meiboom - Gill (CPMG) sequence. Over a wide range of offset fields and ramp rates, the measured response is fully consistent with adiabatic behavior. The echo amplitudes exhibit characteristic modulations that are in excellent agreement with theoretical predictions. Non-adiabatic events are observed at distinct offsets. Abruptly after passing through these offsets, the experimental results deviate from the theoretical adiabatic expressions. These non-adiabatic events occur precisely at the field offsets predicted by theory. It is demonstrated that in the adiabatic regime the effects of field fluctuations are fully reversible, while the occurrence of non-adiabatic events leads to hysteresis. The adiabatic range of field offsets can be increased by modifying the refocusing pulses within the CPMG sequence.
