Abstract
IN the detection of nuclear induction signals, it is usual to modulate the main polarizing magnetic field in such a way that its intensity sweeps cyclically over a small region embracing the resonance value1. If the amplified signal is fed to a cathode-ray oscilloscope in which the X-sweep follows the instantaneous field modulation, it gives rise to a ‘blip’ at a corresponding part of the trace.
