“…This is in contrast to the extensive development of the theory of paramagnetic relaxation enhancement (PRE) describing the enhancement of 1 H relaxation in solutions of paramagnetic complexes. − The PRE theory ranges from simplified descriptions including (among other simplifications) single electron spin relaxation times even for high-spin paramagnetic complexes via several simplified concepts , to highly advanced models including a complex and frequency-dependent electron spin relaxation scenario − and going beyond the perturbation approach to relaxation processes. − The theory has been thoroughly tested, involving results from electron spin resonance to provide demanding criteria for the models . At the same time, the theoretical model of 1 H relaxation processes in solution of magnetic NPs has been proposed in a rather short series of papers. − As far as the experimental verification of the models is concerned, the studies are limited, despite very interesting experimental studies. , One should stress, at this stage, that to validate this theoretical approach, one requires relaxation data covering a broad range of magnetic fields (resonance frequencies). At high magnetic fields, the component of the electronic magnetic moment parallel to the external magnetic field reaches already its saturation (following the Brillouin function), and the electronic relaxation properties play a lesser role in the stochastic fluctuations of the magnetic dipole–dipole interactions between the magnetic moment of the nanoparticle and the nuclear magnetic moment, compared to translation diffusion of solvent molecules.…”
