Abstract
We can pump magnons to a nearly harmonic magneto-textural trap in
superfluid 3He-B. Using the NMR spectroscopy of levels in the trap we
have measured the anisotropic magnon mass and related values of the spin-wave
velocities. Based on our measurements we provide values of the
Fermi-liquid parameter Fa1.
