The beta-detected nuclear magnetic resonance (β-NMR) in liquid H2O has been observed for the first time using a short-lived β-ray emitter 12N (Iπ = 1+,T1/2=11 ms). A nuclear spin polarized 12N beam with an energy of about 20 MeV/nucleon was implanted into an enclosed water sample. About 50 % of implanted 12N ions maintained nuclear polarization and exhibited a β-NMR spectrum. The chemical shift of 12N in H2O relative to 12N in Pt was deduced to be −(3.6±0.5) × 102 ppm.
