Description
Existing data on Cu-nuclear spin relaxation reveal two independent relaxation processes: the one that is temperature independent we link to incommensurate peaks seen by neutrons, while the ''universal'' temperature dependent contribution coincides with 1/{63}^T_{1}(T) for two-chain YBCO 124. We argue that this new result substitutes for a ''pseudogap'' regime in a broad class of high-T_c cuprates and stems from the 1st order phase transition that starts well above the superconductivity T_c but becomes frustrated because of broken electroneutrality in the CuO_2 plane.
