      Magnetic resonance now has a history exceeding 70 years. Not only has the range of applications of magnetic resonance-based techniques grown exponentially but so too has the literature. Consequently, a distillation and synthesis of the literature is in itself an extremely important research tool, providing an efficient means to take newcomers to the research frontiers and keeping experienced researchers aware of contemporary practice.Since 1968 Annual Reports on NMR Spectroscopy been at the vanguard of reviewing the magnetic resonance literature. Annual Reports on NMR Spectroscopy covers magnetic resonance in all its forms, including theory, experiment, applications, and interconnections with other techniques. It also provides the opportunity to make coherent aspects of magnetic resonance that were scattered and opaque. Historical articles are also welcomed.Potential authors are encouraged to consult with the Editor.William S. PriceWestern Sydney University, NSW, Australiae-mail address: w.price@westernsydne...

      Machine learning and deep learning have now been widely used in cheminformatics, and programming skills are becoming a must for most chemists. Python has become an invaluable and highly popular open-source programming language that is ideally suited for data analysis and artificial intelligence in the field. Cheminformatics with Python provides a ground-up, practical introduction that will help the reader make effective use of the software, demonstrating how to use Python to write efficient cheminformatics programs and how to apply it to solve practical chemical problems. The book contains four main parts: programming, data, methods, and applications. In the programming section, a brief introduction to Python language and related scientific computing, cheminformatics, machine learning, and deep learning packages is provided, building knowledge from the ground up. In the data section, a systematic study of the representation of instrumental data, representation of molecular structures, and common chemical databases is given. In the methods section, analytical signal processing, multivariate calibration, multivariate resolution, classical machine learning, and deep learning methods are introduced in detail. The application section then looks at case studies of successful applications of cheminformatics in analytical chemistry, metabolomics, drug discovery, materials science, and other research areas which are demonstrated in detail. Finally, in the supporting appendix section, the necessary mathematical, statistical, and information theory-related theories in the main text are provided, and practical tips such as code editors and source code management are also included. Online coding materials on GitHub and an individual Jupyter notebook for each chapter further support practical learning. Cheminformatics with Python is written primarily for senior undergraduate students, graduate students, post-docs, and professors primarily in the field of computational and analytical chemistry who are harnessing AI, as well as those in medicinal and biochemistry or materials science applying cheminformatics in drug discovery, materials design, or metabolomics research.

      Elementary Kinetic Modelling in Catalytic Reaction Engineering is a practical focused text that brings together the relevant basics for reaction engineering and shows their applications to a wide variety of examples, whilst looking at the intrinsic kinetics data acquisition, reaction mechanism elucidation, elementary step-based modelling and model-based design and optimization involved.The book aims at spanning the entire process from acquisition of the relevant data in dedicated experimental set-ups, over the proper treatment of the data and the corresponding interpretation up to the quantification of the gained understanding in a model. The latter aspect allows the reader to challenge the interpretation made of the data and design subsequent experiments or improve the interpretation/model formulation. The coverage is not just limited to the generic (theoretical) principles but will also carefully consider and explain their application to a variety of real-life applications including gas- and liquid-phase reactions, heterogeneously catalyzed reactions involving adsorption either in the Henry regime or at full saturation of the catalyst or combined homogeneous-heteroge... reactions.Elementary Kinetic Modelling in Catalytic Reaction Engineering is written primarily for graduate students and postdoc researchers in chemical engineering or applied industrial chemistry studying chemical reaction engineering and catalysis, as well as physical chemists studying kinetics.

      Enhanced Sampling Methods for Molecular Dynamics: Algorithms, Implementations, and Applications provides a single introductory resource for understanding enhanced sampling techniques for molecular dynamics studies of equilibrium and kinetics, discussing the theory, algorithm, and implementation of techniques for equilibrium studies, such as Umbrella Sampling, Replica Exchange, Generalized Ensembles, and Metadynamics. A similar discussion of methodologies for enhanced sampling for kinetics then follows. Ron Elber considers exact and approximate approaches of enhanced sampling, their speed, rate of convergence, and accuracy. He examines the necessary inputs of these approaches, such as prior knowledge of the reaction coordinate (or several coarse variables). The chapters consider path integral formulation, Weighted Ensemble, Transition Path Sampling, and Milestoning. Finally, simple, detailed examples illustrate the enhancements and prepare the reader for their use in more complex systems. Enhanced Sampling Methods for Molecular Dynamics: Algorithms, Implementations, and Applications is written primarily for computational chemists and biochemists (graduate students and postdoctoral fellows) as well as computational and theoretical scientists who study molecular processes. Experimentalists in the biophysics and biochemistry fields, as well as practitioners in the drug and material design areas who use standard software tools to conduct MD simulations of their experimental systems will also find the book of interest.
