Hyperpolarized Xenon Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) of Building Stone Materials
We have investigated several building stone materials, including minerals and rocks, using continuous flow hyperpolarized xenon (CF-HP) NMR spectroscopy to probe the surface composition and porosity. Chemical shift and line width values are consistent with petrographic information. Rare upfield shifts were measured and attributed to the presence of transition metal cations on the surface. The e...
متن کاملNon-thermal nuclear magnetic resonance quantum computing using hyperpolarized xenon
Current experiments in liquid-state nuclear magnetic resonance ~NMR! quantum computing are limited by low initial polarization. To address this problem, we have investigated the use of optical pumping techniques to enhance the polarization of a 2-qubit NMR quantum computer ~C and H in CHCl3!. We have generalized the procedure for effective pure state preparation in order to efficiently use the ...
متن کاملGenetically encoded reporters for hyperpolarized xenon magnetic resonance imaging.
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) enables high-resolution non-invasive observation of the anatomy and function of intact organisms. However, previous MRI reporters of key biological processes tied to gene expression have been limited by the inherently low molecular sensitivity of conventional (1)H MRI. This limitation could be overcome through the use of hyperpolarized nuclei, such as in the nob...
متن کاملHyperpolarized xenon for NMR and MRI applications.
Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and imaging (MRI) suffer from intrinsic low sensitivity because even strong external magnetic fields of ~10 T generate only a small detectable net-magnetization of the sample at room temperature (1). Hence, most NMR and MRI applications rely on the detection of molecules at relative high concentration (e.g., water for imaging of biological tissue) o...
متن کاملMolecular Sensing Using Hyperpolarized Xenon NMR Spectroscopy
Although proton-based magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) provides a powerful modality for clinical imaging with excellent spatial resolution, it is not well suited to imaging void spaces (i.e., the lungs), low-abundance molecular markers of disease, or environments where unique proton spin densities are low. To address this limitation, hyperpolarized (hp) xenon-based NMR spectroscopy and MRI have...
