Multiple-pulse coherent averaging methods are used to increase the resolution and frequency range of optically pumped xenon NMR in nutation and point-by-point precession experiments. We observe quadrupolar splittings in [sup 131]Xe spectra due to the macroscopic asymmetry of pumping cells similar to those reported previously, but with reduced demands on magnetic-field homogeneity. Cell treatment with hydrogen gas increases the quadrupolar splittings by a factor of 3 over bare Pyrex cells.
