This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: IN view of the growing interest in spectroscopy at radio and micro wave frequencies, and the increasing number of its applications to both physics and chemistry, it was thought that a general outline of the subject for non-specialists might be of some value. Research in this field is still expanding, but is now sufficiently developed for a critical review to be made both of its main applications and of the techniques that are used in this wavelength region. A broad approach has been taken, and the similarity and inter relation of the different branches have been stressed, as well as their general setting in spectroscopy as a whole. In this way it is hoped that the book will be of interest to many research workers and students who, although not directly concerned with the subject, would like to obtain a general picture of its methods and applica tions. At the same time considerable space has been given to the design of experimental apparatus and equipment, so that those wishing to set up such spectroscopes should be able to find much useful and detailed information.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This invaluable volume contains a biography of Nobel laureate Norman F Ramsey as well as reprints and retrospective commentaries on 56 papers relating to spectroscopy with coherent radiation. The earliest papers describe his work with I I Rabi, developing the then new magnetic resonance method and its uses to measure magnetic moments of the different forms of hydrogen and to discover the deuteron electric quadrupole moment. Later papers include his invention of the method of coherent separated oscillatory fields, the development of the atomic hydrogen maser and the uses of these methods to measure properties of nucleons, nuclei, atoms and molecules and to test parity and time reversal symmetries. Other papers present the first successful theories of nuclear magnetic shielding, NMR chemical shifts, electron-coupled nuclear spin-spin interactions and negative absolute temperatures.

Download or read book NMR Spectroscopy written by Harald Günther and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-12-13 with total page 842 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is one of the most powerful and widely used techniques in chemical research for investigating structures and dynamics of molecules. Advanced methods can even be utilized for structure determinations of biopolymers, for example proteins or nucleic acids. NMR is also used in medicine for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The method is based on spectral lines of different atomic nuclei that are excited when a strong magnetic field and a radiofrequency transmitter are applied. The method is very sensitive to the features of molecular structure because also the neighboring atoms influence the signals from individual nuclei and this is important for determining the 3D-structure of molecules. This new edition of the popular classic has a clear style and a highly practical, mostly non-mathematical approach. Many examples are taken from organic and organometallic chemistry, making this book an invaluable guide to undergraduate and graduate students of organic chemistry, biochemistry, spectroscopy or physical chemistry, and to researchers using this well-established and extremely important technique. Problems and solutions are included.

Download or read book Rabi Scientist Citizen written by John Rigden and published by Plunkett Lake Press. This book was released on 2019-08-15 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Rabi’s voice comes through vividly and forcefully. This is a work of great inspiration.” — Aage Bohr, Professor of Physics, Niels Bohr Institute, Copenhagen, Denmark “This excellent work is the first full biography of Professor Rabi, the scientist who epitomizes the passing of the torch of physics from Europe to the United States almost a half-century ago. As I read this biography it was almost as if Rabi himself were retelling these events so that all can share his memories of those exciting and important years and benefit from his experience and wisdom.” — Rosalyn S. Yalow, Nobel Laureate in Medicine “A delightful book about a delightful man. Rabi always found a simpler way to do any given experiment, and this made him a great physicist. He has now become a sage who has given the most useful advice to all his colleagues.” — Hans A. Bethe, Nobel Laureate in Physics and Professor Emeritus of Physics, Cornell University “A steadily fascinating account of an exemplary life. Rigden gives the lay reader a clear idea of what the physicist is seeing, what leads him to such strange thoughts. His account of ‘The Matter of J. Robert Oppenheimer’ gives more useful information in a few pages than I could find in the near thousand-page transcript of the hearings.” —Howard Nemerov, Pulitzer Prize-winning Poet and Professor of English, Washington University “An admirable biography, the best possible replacement for the memoirs that Rabi never found time to write.” McGeorge Bundy, Professor of History, New York University “The twentieth century [was] a time of high adventure in physics. It is no wonder that Rabi, with his ebullience and complex genius and wisdom found his profession ‘wonderful.’ As Rigden demonstrates in this complete and very good book, physics was wonderful for Rabi and Rabi was wonderful for physics.” — R. R. Wilson, Science “The growth, in this century, of the American physics community — in size, stature, and influence — is certainly a historical development with deep roots and profound implications. John Rigden’s Rabi: Scientist and Citizen is a fascinating treatment of that subject as reflected in the career and person of Isidor I. Rabi... The [book] sets forth in coherent and sometimes passionate prose an impressive account of I. I. Rabi’s self-image and vision, a vision shared by an important group of physicist colleagues... an engaging personal portrait.” — Allan A. Needell, Isis: A Journal of the History of Science “A real tour de force and a pleasure to read.” — John G. King, Physics Today “Rabi’s life was remarkable, full of incident, vision and action, including war, hot and cold. The biography is a masterpiece, rich in anecdote and never losing the narrative drive.” — New Scientist “Nobel prize-winning physicist I. I. Rabi was described by journalist Daniel Greenberg in 1967 as the éminence grise of America’s scientific establishment. During the Second World War he was in charge of radar research as an associate director of the MIT Radiation Laboratory and was a senior consultant for Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory. After the war he helped to establish the Brookhaven National Laboratory; he sat on the General Advisory Committee (GAC) of the Atomic Energy Commission, eventually succeeding Oppenheimer as chairman; under Eisenhower he was an architect of the president’s Science Advisory Committee. As an elder statesman in the American Cold War scientific community, he was concerned to solidify both the political and the cultural power of science. John S. Rigden’s biography of Rabi, now reissued with a new preface by the author, emphasizes Rabi’s view of science as properly not just a source of technological and military strength, but as ‘the center of culture’.” — Charles Thorpe, British Journal for the History of Science “Rigden, physicist and editor of the American Journal of Physics, has created an intimate portrait of this Titan of 20th century science... The book takes the reader into a world where powerful physical forces and powerful political forces come together to shape our century.” — Bulletin of Science, Technology & Society “[A] satisfying, sympathetic portrait of a modest, brilliant scientist who regards his calling as ‘sacred,’ a religious exploration of ‘one God,’ the God being nature. Readers will treasure equally the story of Rabi’s molecular-beam experiments which earned him the Nobel Prize in 1944 and a gallery of revealing glimpses of his scientist friends, chief among them J. Robert Oppenheimer.” — Publishers Weekly “I. I. Rabi is one of this country’s most distinguished physicists... his life has encompassed all of this century and the revolution in physics that it produced... an interesting story, ably told by John S. Rigden, a physicist at the University of Missouri-St. Louis.” — Lee Dembart, Los Angeles Times

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, which has evolved only within the last 20 years, has become one of the very important tools in chemistry and physics. The literature on its theory and application has grown immensely and a comprehensive and adequate treatment of all branches by one author, or even by several, becomes increasingly difficult. This series is planned to present articles written by experts working in various fields of nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and will contain review articles as well as progress reports and original work. Its main aim, however, is to fill a gap, existing in literature, by publishing articles written by specialists, which take the reader from the introductory stage to the latest development in the field. The editors are grateful to the authors for the time and effort spent in writing the articles, and for their invaluable cooperation. The Editors Analysis of NMR Spectra A Guide for Chemists R. A.
