The creation of composite quantum gates that implement quantum response functions U^(θ)
dependent on some parameter of interest θ is often more of an art than a science. Through …

Surface nuclear magnetic resonance (surface NMR) is an extremely powerful tool for
groundwater resource investigations. However, the technique suffers from an inherently low …

We present SigPy. RF, an extensive set of open-source, Python-based tools for MRI RF
pulse design. This toolbox extends the SigPy Python software package and leverages …

Purpose To perform B 1+ B _1^+‐selective excitation using the Bloch–Siegert shift for spatial
localization. Theory and Methods AB 1+ B _1^+‐selective excitation is produced by an …

Purpose CEST MRI has been used to probe changes in cardiac metabolism via assessment
of CEST contrast from Cr. However, B1 variation across the myocardium leads to spatially …

Conventional B 0 gradient systems have several weaknesses including high cost and bulk.
As a step towards addressing these while providing new degrees of freedom for spatial …

Magnetic resonance imaging is currently experiencing groundbreaking advancements at
high-and low-magnetic field strength extremes. Ultra-high field scanners at strengths of 7 …

Conventional MR imaging uses linear B0 gradients for spatial encoding, which have high
cost and bulk, and lead to patient discomfort via noise and PNS. We introduce MR …

In this thesis, two fundamental concepts of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) were studied
and combined in order to develop new solutions to practical problems. These concepts …

This work presents a $75 phase modulated 2.07 MHz radiofrequency power amplifier
(RFPA) measuring 8.5 x4. 5cm for Selective Encoding through Nutation and Fingerprinting …
