Summary

Translational motion in solution, either diffusion or fluid flow, is at the heart of chemical and biochemical reactivity. Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) provides a powerful non-invasive technique for studying the phenomena using magnetic field gradient methods. Describing the physical basis of measurement techniques, with particular emphasis on diffusion, balancing theory with experimental observations and assuming little mathematical knowledge, this is a strong, yet accessible, introduction to the field. A detailed discussion of magnetic field gradient methods applied to Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is included, alongside extensive referencing throughout, providing a timely, definitive book to the subject, ideal for researchers in the fields of physics, chemistry and biology.

Author Biography

William S. Price is Professor and Chair of Nanotechnology in the School of Medicine, University of Western Sydney, where he also directs the Biomedical Magnetic Resonance Facility and leads the Nanoscale Organisation and Dynamics Group. Professor Price is an expert in the theory, development and application of NMR spectroscopy, focusing on NMR diffusion measurements and MRI techniques for studying molecular association and molecular dynamics.
