Lecture Titles: NMR Spectroscopy and MRI for Macromolecular Science (each lecture for ca. 90 min + question time)
- Lecture #1: “Basics of NMR Imaging”, July 19, 16:00-17:30 JST
The concept of space encoding in NMR is introduced. The idea of k-space is discussed. Examples for experimental implementations are shown in light of k-space scanning and compared for resolution and sensitivity.
- Lecture #2: “Diffusion NMR”, July 27, 16:00-17:30 JST
Based on the idea of space encoding the idea of encoding displacement and a two-time correlation function is developed. The concepts of pulsed-field gradient NMR and of q-space will be introduced. The Stejskal-Tanner equation is explained and options for data evaluation will be discussed.
- Lecture #3: “Flow NMR Imaging”, September 7, 16:00-17:30 JST
Different signatures for coherent (flow) and incoherent (diffusion) flow in pulsed-field-gradient NMR are discussed. Combining the concepts of space encoding and displacement encoding flow patter are measured providing the velocity vector for each pixel resolved.
- Lecture #4: “Polymer Dynamics”, September 24, 16:00-17:30 JST
NMR experiments sensitive to motion are discussed. The idea of an auto correlation function is introduced to characterize time scales of motions. Relaxation time and exchange experiments are explained with examples from dynamics in polymer systems.
