Method for exciting transverse magnetization in magnetic resonance

TL;DR: In this article, a method for exciting transverse magnetization by irradiating a nuclear spin system subjected to a constant magnetic field with a frequency-modulated rf-pulse ("chirp"-pulse) and with a further frequency-modified rfpulse (further chirppulse), for refocusing the magnetization, is characterized in that the rf pulse-(P1) and the further pulse (P2) overlap each other in time at least partially.
