A Primer Of Nmr Theory With Calculations In Mathematica (C)

This book presents the theory of NMR enhanced with Mathematica notebooks that show exactly how the theory is implemented. Based on a graduate level theoretical NMR course developed by the author the book provides a succinct presentation of the theoretical principles that apply to NMR including detailed examples (Mathematica notebooks) of useful NMR calculations based on these principles. The book covers many areas from classical magnetism through the Bloch equation to quantum mechanics and the density operator. The book continues through the “real space” angular dependence of internal Hamiltonians, spherical tensors, Wigner rotations, effects of motion and exchange on spectra, NMR relaxation based experiments, and ending with the connection between molecular motion and NMR relaxation. A distinguishing feature of this book is the cohesive description of effects of motion on NMR spectra and relaxation parameters.
