ABSTRACT
The radical generated by gamma-irradiation of crystalline L-alanine was examined by continuous wave (CW) and pulsed electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) at 1.8, 3.2, 4.9, 9.1 and 19.4 GHz. The spin-flip satellite lines that make a prominent contribution to the saturated spectra at 9.1 GHz are less conspicuous at lower frequencies because of overlap with the allowed transitions. The spin-lattice relaxation times measured by long-pulse saturation recovery and phase memory times measured by electron spin echo increase with increasing microwave frequency.
