Copper nuclear quadrupole resonance and zero field nuclear magnetic resonance studies of õ÷ÁÇóÉÚï×. show that a magnetic phase appears in underdoped 123 superconductors treated in ambient wet air. The studies give convincing evidence that the "empty" óÉ ï chains play the role of easy water insertion channels. The reaction occurs first in ordered regions of the crystallites. The final product of the reaction is a non-superconducting antiferromagnetic compound characterized by at least two types of magnetically ordered copper ions with ZFNMR spectra respectively in the frequency ranges of 46-96 and 96-135 MHz respectively. Even for powder samples fixed in an epoxy resin, the reaction is found to occur partly after a few years.
