Abstract
WE report here typical experimental results obtained in measuring the diamagnetic moment of plasmas immersed in static or quasi-static magnetic fields. Nuclear and electron spin resonance techniques were used for detection of magnetic field shifts ; the results indicate that such techniques may be of value as a diagnostic tool in high-energy plasma research.
