Peter Schmieder: Important papers on NMR

This selection of papers on NMR is a very subjective collection of publications that I find interesting because they are either ground-breaking or very good from a didactic point of view. The list will always be incomplete but I will try to add papers from the past and present as I go along

classics

reviews

   

quadrature detection

PROF (product operator formalism)

   

triple resonance

relaxation

   

shaped pulses
