After successfully completing the course you will:
- be able to analyse magnetic resonance spectra on the basis of the quantum mechanical as well as the classical description of magnetic resonance.
- have acquired some basic skill in carrying out NMR measurements and gained some basic understanding of NMR spectrometer operation.
- be acquainted with the various fields within magnetic resonance and be able to indicate the relevant interactions and specific experiments and characteristics for each field.

Magnetic resonance techniques have a broad range of application in chemistry, physics, biochemistry materials science and medicine This lecture course covers the basics of magnetic resonance spectroscopy as well as applications of this important technique. First, the theoretical framework of magnetic resonance is covered in the lectures (Zeeman interaction, chemical shift and scalar-coupling). The theory is covered both from a classical as well as the quantummechanical viewpoint. Practical aspects such as 2D NMR, chemical exchange and experimental techniques are discussed. Before discussing the various fields within magnetic resonance (solid state NMR, electron spin resonance, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and biomolecular NMR), relevant interactions such as dipolar couplings and the quadrupolar interaction are treated. The computer practical and lab course are intended to illustrate the material covered in the lectures and workshops.
