Residual chemical shift anisotropy (RCSA) is the difference between the chemical shift anisotropy (CSA) of aligned and non-aligned molecules.
It is normally three orders of magnitude smaller than the static CSA, with values on the order of parts-per-billion (ppb).
RCSA is useful for structural determination and it is among the new developments in NMR spectroscopy.
