摘要

The origin of the factor 1/4 in the equation describing the quadrupolar relaxation times for linear molecules in the dilute gas phase is clarified. The quadrupolar relaxation crosshyphen;sections for nitrogen molecule are around 30 Aring;2as reported by us and not around 120 as claimed in the comment.
