Abstract

Description

The contribution of parity-violating effects to the phase transition of the D-/L-alanine crystals was confirmed by 1H CRAMPS solid state NMR, DC-magnetic susceptibilities and ultrasonic measurements. It was found that the spin relaxation mechanism of alpha-H nucleus of D-alanine molecule is different from L-alanine and the effect is stronger than that of L-alanine. In addition, D-alanine undergoes a magnetic phase transition at a field of 1.0T, which is confirmed by a peak-form ultrasonic attenuation curve. DC-magnetic susceptibilities measurements of L-alanine also indicate abnormal magnetic properties, which is accompanied by a step-form ultrasonic attenuation jump and its mechanism seems different from that of D-alanine. The phase transition is considered to act as a cooperating amplification mechanism of the P-odd effects at the molecular level.
