title = "Optimal control of coupled spins in presence of longitudinal and transverse relaxation",
abstract = "Experiments in coherent spectroscopy correspond to control of quantum mechanical ensemble guiding them from initial to final target states. The control inputs (pulse sequences) that accomplish these transformations should be designed to minimize the effects of relaxation and to optimize the sensitivity of the experiments. For example in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, a question of fundamental importance is what is the maximum efficiency of coherence or polarization transfer between two spins in the presence of relaxation. Furthermore what is the optimal pulse sequence which achieves this efficiency? This manuscript extends our previous work in the above problems. Here, we take into account both the longitudinal and the transverse relaxation mechanisms, thus generalizing our previous results, where the former had been neglected.",
