PHYS 7530 - Principles of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance

The fundamental concepts and experimental techniques of NMR. Topics include the Bloch equations, quantum mechanical treatment of nuclear spins in static and time-dependent magnetic fields, the spin echo, dipolar broadening of resonance lines, spin-lattice relaxation, spin temperature, nuclear quadrupole resonance, double resonance, and applications to selected problems in solid-state physics and medical physics.
