CHEM 6170 - Advanced Topics in Nuclear Magnetic Resonance


Advanced graduate course covering fundamental aspects of NMR common for application in a broad range of fields. Classical and quantum-mechanical descriptions are utilized to explore information content of NMR pulse sequences. The latter approach includes density matrix theory and proceeds with the product-operator formalism. Practical aspects and data analysis are also described. Subsequent focus is on liquid-state NMR of biological macromolecules, including resonance assignment and determination of molecular structure and dynamics. (Students cannot obtain credit for both this course and BCBP 6170.)

Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisite: CHEM 4410 or equivalent.

When Offered: Spring term annually.



Credit Hours: 4
