Abstract
The dynamics of spin diffusion in a fluid is governed by the Torrey-Bloch equations, and the solution is often expressed mathematically in an eigenmode expansion. We report an experimental demonstration of the excitation and detection of a wide range of eigenmodes in porous media by exploring the inhomogeneous internal magnetic field in the pore space. The nodal character of the eigenfunctions of the high eigenmodes was clearly observed. The methodology of excitation and detection of the high eigenmodes may be used to better characterize pore geometry.
