Gas‐phase relaxation: 83 Kr longitudinal relaxation is studied as a function of gas composition and surface chemistry. Two density‐independent relaxation mechanisms are identified. One results from surface interactions and is composition‐independent and the other from the formation of Kr 2 van der Waals dimers and depends strongly on composition.
