Frequency and surface effects on the CESR of silver, sodium and copper

The effect of the observational frequency upon the Conduction Electron Spin Resonance recorded from silver foils and sodium in quartz tubes is reported. For both materials an increase in frequency results in an increase in linewidth, a linear relationship being indicated for silver. We interpret some features of the results as being due to surface effects, additional evidence for the influence of the surface on CESR coming from surface treatment of copper foils.
