This
multi-topic resource covers key spectroscopy techniques used in the analysis of
molecular and atomic systems. The note encompasses a detailed introduction to
electronic spectroscopy, IR spectroscopy, and NMR spectroscopy, including both
proton and carbon types, mass spectrometry, electron spin resonance (ESR), and
Mössbauer spectroscopy. There is also a detailed description of every technique
in its basic principles, experimental setup, and applications in different
fields like chemistry, materials science, and biochemistry. The note also
focuses on how these spectroscopic methods are applied to understand molecular
structures, chemical bonding, and dynamic processes. Perfect for students and
researchers, the book provides both a theoretical background and practical
insights into the more general applications of spectroscopy in modern scientific
research.

This note
focuses on how spectroscopic techniques can be integrated to determine the
structure of unknown molecules. It starts off with an overview of the
electromagnetic spectrum and basic 1H NMR, moving on to much advanced discussion
about how NMR can be combined with other methods such as IR, UV, and mass
spectrometry for an overall structural analysis. It goes over chemical shifts of
protons, coupling constants, and the use of 2D NMR for obtaining detailed
structural information. Other topics discussed include multinuclear NMR, dynamic
NMR and conformational, as well as chemical exchange rates measurement. This
note is perfect for students and researchers who want to use several
spectroscopic methods in the determination of the structure of a compound.
This note focuses on the
applications of Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (MRS) in clinical and
non-clinical practice. The book is divided into two parts: MRS inside the
clinic, such as imaging and analyzing metabolic processes in vivo, which will be
presented in the first part of the book, and applications of MRS outside the
clinic in fields including biochemistry, neuroscience, and pharmacology. As the
note discusses both clinical and research applications, it allows for a very
comprehensive look at how MRS can be used to probe biochemical and metabolic
processes. This note would be an excellent resource for students and
professionals in the medical and scientific communities.
