Abstract :
It is an intriguing challenge for researchers to separate water into its spin isomeric modifications -paramagnetic ortho-water and nonmagnetic para-water. Accessibility of these new forms of water could stimulate the research in many branches of science. We report on the application to this problem of the terahertz BWO-based technique as a diagnostic method.
