Nuclear magnetic resonance of anti-parallel spin neutrons (of total spin zero for the neutron-spin pair), plus a proton of spin . Therefore, the tritium total nuclear spin value is again , just like for the simpler, abundant hydrogen isotope, H nucleus (the "proton"). The NMR absorption frequency for tritium is also similar to that of H. In many other cases of "non-radioactive" nuclei, the overall spin is also non-zero. For example, the nucleus has an overall spin value . A non-zero spin formula_2 is always associated with a non-zero magnetic dipole moment, formula_3, via the relation formula_4 where "γ" is the gyromagnetic ratio.
Tritium order to obtain the structure for ocean circulation, the tritium concentrations were mapped on 3 surfaces of constant potential density (23.90, 26.02, and 26.81). Results indicated that the tritium was well-mixed (at 6 to 7 TU) on the 26.81 isopycnal in the subarctic cyclonic gyre and there appeared to be a slow exchange of tritium (relative to shallower isopycnals) between this gyre and the anticyclonic gyre to the south; also, the tritium on the 23.90 and 26.02 surfaces appeared to be exchanged at a slower rate between the central gyre of the North Pacific and the equatorial regions.
