      Annual Reports on NMR Spectroscopy, Volume 112 presents the latest release in a series that has established itself as a premier resource for both specialists and non-specialists interested in new techniques and applications pertaining to NMR spectroscopy. Chapters in this new release include Artificial Neural Networks in Magnetic Resonance Relaxometry, Tumor extracellular pH mapping using electron paramagnetic resonance: Techniques and applications, and Recent Affordable Permanent Magnet Configurations and related technologies for Portable Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)/Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) for medical care.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 including obituaries are also welcomed.Potential authors are encouraged to consult with the Serial Editor.William S. PriceWestern Sydney University, NSW, Australiaw.price@wes...

      Quantum Chemistry Methods for Oncological Drugs provides a comprehensive reference text for student, researchers, and academic staff across disciplines working in the field of Nanobiotechnology, who need to grasp the unique inter-relationship of the physical, chemical, and biological properties of oncological drugs and their interactions. It provides a theoretical/computat... framework based on quantum chemistry and addresses key questions in which detailed analysis and precise predictions are always required. The sophisticated molecular recognition of various natural biological materials has been used in the formation of a complex network of structures potentially useful for a variety of pharmaceutical applications. They offer solutions to many of the obstacles that need to be overcome, with accuracy not feasible with the technologies usually available in materials science. Important common challenges presented in this book are aspects related to the biology of cancer using our immunological checking points, specialized proteins that act as brakes in the immune system, allowing it to recognize and attack more efficiently only the cancer cells, avoiding the destruction of healthy cells as in conventional chemotherapy and radiotherapy treatments. This book is devoted to this burgeoning area of Nanobiotechnology for oncological drugs and will be valuable in covering the new developments that have occurred in the last decade or so. It is aimed at graduate students, faculty members and other researchers in physics, chemistry, biology, pharmacology, and medicine.

    • Wave Optics in Infrared Spectroscopy

      Wave Optics in Infrared Spectroscopy starts where conventional books about infrared spectroscopy end. Whereas the latter are based on the Bouguer-Beer-Lambert law, the cornerstones of this book are wave optics and dispersion theory.This gap between both levels of theory is bridged to allow a seamless transition from one to the other. Based on these foundations, the reader is able to choose which level of theory is adequate for the particular problem at hand. Advanced topics like 2D correlation analysis, chemometrics and strong coupling are introduced and viewed from a wave optics perspective. Spectral mixing rules are also considered to better understand spectra of heterogeneous samples. Finally, optical anisotropy is examined to allow a better understanding of spectral features due to orientation and orientational averaging. This discussion is based on a 4 x 4 matrix formalism, which is used not only to simulate and analyze complex materials, but also to understand vibrational circular dichroism from a (semi-) classical point of view.Wave Optics in Infrared Spectroscopy is written as a tool to reunite the fragmented field of infrared spectroscopy. It will appeal to chemists, physicists, and chemical/optical engineers.

      Metal Organic Frameworks: Fundamentals to Advanced offers a substantial and complete treatment of published results. The book includes a summary of current research, along with an in- depth explanation of Metal organic frameworks (MOFs) and applications in this versatile area. Metal organic frameworks (MOFs) are structured frameworks made up of metal ions and organic molecules. These materials are similar to sponges and can absorb, retain and remove molecules from their pores. As a result, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are the most rapidly evolving substances in chemistry with the highest surface areas due to their well-ordered pore structure.The exciting and vast surface area allows for more chemical reactions and molecule adsorption, hence this new resource provides the newest updates on the topics covered.
