Continuous Flow Dynamic Nuclear Polarisation

连续流动态核极化该项目将研究在连续流系统中利用奥弗豪瑟效应在水和其他液体中快速极化质子的新方法。总体目标是制造一种能够产生高流速极化液体的设备，以提高液态 NMR 的灵敏度，在 MRI 中提供额外的对比度，并在生物 EPR 中实现水可及性研究。它将利用圣安德鲁斯先进的电磁建模、毫米波和 EPR 硬件和设施，并寻求显着改进当前的最先进技术。

Continuous Flow Dynamic Nuclear PolarisationThis project will examine new methods to rapidly polarise protons, using the Overhauser effect, in water and other liquids, in a continuous flow system. The overall goal is to make a device that will produce high flow rates of polarised liquids, to improve sensitivity for liquid-state NMR, provide extra contrast in MRI, and enable water accessibility studies in biological EPR. It will make use of the advanced EM-modelling, mm-wave and EPR hardware and facilities available at St Andrews, and seeks to significantly improve upon current state-of-the-art.
