Abstract

The Wei-Norman Formalism is applied to the problem of finding exact solutions to the Bloch Equations without relaxation for the Sin-Cos Pulse. Derivations of the solutions and comparison with numerical results are presented. The agreement is excellent. The method may be applicable to find the solution of the Bloch equations without relaxation for any amplitude and frequency offset functions.

Keywords: Bloch Equations; Sin-Cos Pulse; Radiofrequency Pulses
