Sumario: | "Compared to medical Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), Magnetic Resonance Microscopy (MRM) focuses on MRI applied to objects of smaller scale and higher spatial resolution since more than three decades. After the pioneering work by Eccles, Callaghan, Aguayo, Blackband, Johnson, et al. in 1986, MRM quickly spread to, among other fields, chemistry, histology and materials research. Since 1992, the edited book series "Magnetic Resonance Microscopy" has provided an important voice describing the latest developments of spatially resolved magnetic resonance methods and their applications far beyond the scope of medical diagnostics. An excellent introduction to MRM, focusing on the practical aspects of high magnetic fields and on the study of biological systems, was authored in 2017 by Luisa Ciobanu: "Microscopic Magnetic Resonance Imaging: A Practical Perspective" (Pan Stanford, Singapore, 2017). Our book complements this recent monograph by showing the use of MRM and related techniques in a much broader area and on a wider scale, which extends from chemical engineering to plant research and battery applications, highlighting the interdisciplinary nature of MRM. The book opens with a section on hardware and methodology, covering aspects of micro-engineering, magnet technology, coil performance and hyper-polarization to improve signal-to-noise-ratio, a major bottleneck of MRM. Specific pulse sequences and developments in the field of mobile nuclear magnetic resonance are further topics of this first chapter. The following parts, 2 and 3, review essential processes such as filtration, multi-phase flows and transport, and a wide range of systems from biomarkers via single cells to plants and biofilms. Part 4 focuses on energy research, which is becoming increasingly important due to the globally growing environmental problems. It reports on battery types and their developments and how battery states can be recorded and characterized with MRM. Finally, there is an appeal in the last chapter that theory and applications should not be treated separately, because much can be gained from their complementarity"-- |
