Abstract

After a recapitulation of the results of Van Vleck's theory of the paramagnetic lattice relaxation a number of new experimental data concerning the dispersion in various chromium salts are discussed in order to test this theory. It appears that the dependence of the relaxation constant on the magnetic field is given correctly by Van Vleck but that the influence of temperature comes out wrong. Finally it is shown that the paramagnetic dispersion in iron alum too is at variance with theory whereas the results on manganese ammonium sulphate are in accordance with Van Vleck's expectations.
