Abstract

The authors have measured the change in the anisotropy of the NMR spin-lattice relaxation rates for

{}^{63}{Cu}

(2),

{}^{17}O

(2,3), and

{}^{89}Y

between the normal and superconducting states of

{YBa}_{2}

{Cu}_{3}

O_{7}

. These results cannot be explained by a straightforward extension to T<

T_{c}

of current theories, such as the theory of Millis, Monien, and Pines of normal-state NMR relaxation.
