Aims & Scope

MRC is devoted to the rapid publication of papers which are concerned with the development of magnetic resonance techniques, or in which the application of such techniques plays a pivotal part. Contributions from scientists working in all areas of NMR, ESR and NQR are invited, and papers describing applications in all branches of chemistry, structural biology and materials chemistry are published. The journal is of particular interest not only to scientists working in academic research, but also those working in commercial organisations who need to keep up-to-date with the latest practical applications of magnetic resonance techniques.
