Hyperfine resonance of gaseous atomic hydrogen at 4.2 K

The hyperfine frequency and wall shift of hydrogen atoms at 4.2 K stored in a bulb coated with solid H2 were measured. The phase shift per wall collision is -0.29(1) rad. The adsorption energy of H on H2 is 9(2) K, and the adsorption time at 4.2 K is approximately 30 nsec. Transverse and longitudinal relaxation times have been measured, and atomic densities greater than 10 to the 14th/cu cm have been observed.
