Produktbeschreibung

An introduction and tutorial on electron paramagnetic spectroscopy

Bringing a classic text up to date after three decades of popularity, Electron Paramagnetic Resonance: Elementary Theory and Practical Applications, Second Edition provides a basic understanding of the underlying theory, fundamentals, and applications of electron paramagnetic spectroscopy (EPR).

Choosing to develop a sound base of knowledge rather than comprehensive coverage, the authors cover the basics along with:

- Exciting new developments and current trends and techniques

- Updated information on high-frequency and multi-frequency EPR

- Pulsed microwave techniques and spectra analysis

- Dynamic effects

- Relaxation phenomena

- Computer-based spectra simulation

- Biomedical aspects of EPR

- The application of EPR techniques to problem solving in such areas as organic, inorganic, biological, and analytical chemistry; chemical physics; geophysics; and mineralogy

Written to serve as both a self-study guide for professionals and a textbook for students, this Second Edition will equip readers with the foundation necessary to apply EPR to their own specialized fields of interest.
