Parameters for adiabatic RF pulses used in simulations and experiments

Sequence block	RF pulse	B₁ modulation	G modulation^(a)	Tp (ms)	BW (kHz)	γB_1,max (kHz)
TOCSY (high-power)	GOIA-W(16,4)	WURST-16	WURST-4	1.25	16	1.22
TOCSY (medium-power)	GOIA-W(16,4)	WURST-16	WURST-4	1.5	13.34	1.02
TOCSY (low-power) ^(b)	GOIA-W(16,4)	WURST-16	WURST-4	2.0	10	0.76
LASER	GOIA-W(16,4)	WURST-16	WURST-4	3.5	20	0.82

^a)

for all pulses an inverse WURST-4 function was used with a gradient reduction factor f = 0.9 in the middle of the pulse;

^b)

the condition used for in-vivo MRS.
