The generally accepted, though approximate, theory of the relaxation time T₁ of the nuclear spin system in ortho H₂ at low temperatures was developed by Schwinger (see Bloembergen (1948)). In this thesis Schwinger's theory is generalized to the case of arbitrary
temperatures. An expression for T₁ is obtained which reduces to the Schwinger formula at low temperatures
and ordinary pressures and to a slightly modified
Schwinger formula at low temperatures and low pressures. The method used here to calculate T₁ is somewhat different from the method used by Schwinger. / Science, Faculty of / Physics and Astronomy, Department of / Graduate
