The first quantum theory of the classical radiation damping in nuclear magnetic resonance is presented. Relaxation times and life times arising from the interaction of nuclear spin with the radio-frequency radiation field are calculated. Second-order line shifts are predicted and the existence ofIz andIz2-type operators due to photons is pointed out. The predicted line shifts as well as relaxation are found to be measurably large. Numerical estimates are given for protons in water.
