Abstract

Quantum exchange effects, predicted to occur in the spin diffusion of polarized nondegenerate gases, have been observed in a 3He-4He mixture by spin-echo techniques. Measurements of the spin rotation parameter (μM0)2 and diffusion constant D are in reasonable agreement with theoretical predictions until the degeneracy temperature is approached.
