Abstract
Measurements of proton spin-lattice relaxation times in -irradiated C at 1.1°K have been used to observe spin conversion. A strong magnetic field dependence of the conversion rate is found, with a sharp peak at 12.5 kOe and with some indication of a second peak at 15.2 kOe. The existence of the two peaks is tentatively interpreted as corresponding to transitions from a slightly split level () to the ground level ().
