7- In this tutorial, the NMR relaxation rate :math: `R_1 ` is measured from water
8- confined in a nanoslit of silica.
7+ In this tutorial, the H-NMR relaxation rates :math: `R_1 ` and :math: `R_2 ` are
8+ measured for water confined within a nanoslit composed of silica. The hydrogen
9+ atoms of interest include those in the water molecules and those in the surface
10+ hydroxyl (-OH) groups of the silica. The individual contributions to
11+ :math: `R_1 ` and :math: `R_2 `—namely, intra-molecular, inter-molecular, and
12+ water-hydroxyl interactions—are computed separately. This system illustrates
13+ an anisotropic case, where all three correlation functions,
14+ :math: `G^{(1 )}`, :math: `G^{(2 )}`, and :math: `G^{(3 )}`, must be evaluated.
