Abstract
The spin-lattice relaxation in liquids has been investigated on the basis of quasicrystalline models for them. Explicit expressions for spin-lattice relaxation time are derived for the jump-diffusion model and the stochastic model. The theory has been applied to the case of water and the constants used in the calculation are derived from the experimental data on the cold-neutron scattering. The spin-lattice relaxation is found to be quite insensitive to the details of the models.
