Abstract

Improved 129Xe-NMR signal intensities for continuous-flow hp-xenon experiments using diode-array lasers were achieved with high xenon partial pressures up to 200 kPa. The signal strength remained largely constant for pressure increases above 200 kPa and molecular nitrogen was omitted, in general, without substantial signal losses in mixtures above 100 kPa xenon. A quantitative explanation for the diminished importance of nitrogen was provided.
