20. Generally, mutual spin flips are included in Eq. (1). In practice, the spin flips are suppressed when the relative shifts of the coupled nuclei differ by more than the internuclear coupling terms. The inhomogeneous broadening is usually taken to be large enough in the cuprates that this limit applies.
