Spin dephasing in the extended strong collision approximation.
For Markovian dynamics of field fluctuations we present here an extended strong collision approximation, thereby putting our previous strong collision approach [Phys. Rev. Lett. 83, 4215 (1999)]) into a systematic framework. Our approach provides expressions for the free induction and spin-echo magnetization decays that may be solved analytically or at least numerically. It is tested for the generic cases of dephasing due to an Anderson-Weiss process and due to restricted diffusion in a linear field gradient.
