Temperature and Density Dependence of the Local Magnetic Field in Dense Xenon Gas

Abstract

We report precise NMR frequency measurements on fluid xenon which show a temperature-dependent local magnetic field and small but significant deviations from a linear density dependence of the local field. These data can be used to obtain values for the shift of the local field from its zero-density limit as well as the temperature dependence of the shift per unit density in the low-density limit.
