NMR and EPR
Molecular systems important to biology, environmental remediation and sustainability are studied using a suite of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrometers with frequencies ranging from 300 to 850 MHz. A pair of electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectrometers complement the capability. See a complete list of NMR and EPR instruments.
