      <text>Satellite peaks in a nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum symetrically spaced either side of a main peak at a frequency offset related to the rate of spinning of the sample.</text>
      <notes>
        <item>In solid state nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy this occurs if the sample is spun at a rate less than the magnitude of the anisotropic interaction.</item>
