Popis: Abstract Analysis of multiexponential decay has remained a topic of active research for over 200 years. This attests to the widespread importance of this problem and to the profound difficulties in characterizing the underlying monoexponential decays. Here, we demonstrate the fundamental improvement in stability and conditioning of this classic problem through extension to a second dimension; we present statistical analysis, Monte-Carlo simulations, and experimental magnetic resonance relaxometry data to support this remarkable fact. Our results are readily generalizable to higher dimensions and provide a potential means of circumventing conventional limits on multiexponential parameter estimation.
