      When a gas sample of 13CH3F is prepared with a population of spin isomers far from the equilibrium given by nuclear spin statistics, it relaxes towards this equilibrium with an exponential decay rate. This rate is increased by submitting the molecules to a static electric field, emphasizing the role of the magnetic intramolecular interactions and of the collisions in the “quantum relaxation” process ...
