Abstract
Let us consider a molecule fixed in space and containing a magnetic nucleus. If the molecule is exposed to a uniform static magnetic field \( {\bar B_O} \) this will act on the electrons to induce a small additional field \( \mathop {\rm{B}}\limits^{\rm{\_}} \prime \). At the position of our magnetic nucleus the local field, \( {{\bar B}_{loc}} \), will be
Experimental evidence as well as theoretical arguments indicate that for reasonably moderate magnetic fields (cf. discussion by Ramsay [143]) the induced field is proportional to \( {\bar B_O} \) but not necessarily aligned parallel to it and one may write
where \( {\rm{\tilde \sigma }} \) is a second rank tensor — the nuclear shielding tensor.
