The wings of the EPR absorption line of an exchange narrowed spin system have been studied experimentally and theoretically. Solid solutions of DPPH in polystyrene with spin concentrations about 3 × 10 20 spins/cm 3 show an exponential rather than the often assumed Gaussian behaviour in the wings. The appropriate portion of the spectrum of the random frequency modulation causing the narrowing is recovered. The steepness of the exponential decrease is shown to be proportional to the exchange frequency. This result is in reasonable agreement with the high‐temperature spin correlation functions for a Heisenberg ferromagnet, obtained by some theoretical works on this subject.
