Abstract

In this article, the capabilities of using low-field NMR of liquid 129Xe near triple point in the study of porous media were demonstrated. The possibility of detecting the NMR signal of Xenon with natural isotopic composition and Boltzmann equilibrium spin polarization in the liquid and solid phases was explored. The problems encountered during the planning and conducting the experiments, along with their solutions, are presented. Key issues included low sensitivity, particularly in magnetic fields up to 1T; difficulties in filling the experimental cell with liquid Xenon; the critical need to control the temperature gradient along the NMR probe axis and prevent capillary blockage; control of the solid-to-liquid transition; RF-noise from the electrical leads. As a result, spin-lattice relaxation times (T1) of bulk Xenon were measured and the spin-spin relaxation times (T2) of bulk Xenon were estimated. Some of preliminary results on 129Xe NMR in porous media are presented.
