1954491Lancaster: American Physical Society 1954. 1st Edition. FIRST EDITION IN ORIGINAL WRAPS OF A PIONEERING PAPER IN MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING. Carr and Purcell "showed that a simple modification of Hahn's spin-echo method reduces drastically the effect of diffusion" in magnetic resonance thus increasing its reliability Aligizaki 213. <br /> <br /> Otto Hahn recognized "the sensitivity of the spin echo MR signal on molecular diffusion. While he proposed that one could measure the diffusion coefficient of a solution containing spin-labeled molecules he did not propose a direct method for doing so. In 1954 in this paper Carr and Purcell proposed a complete mathematical and physical framework for such a measurement using Hahn's NMR spin echo sequence. They realized that the echo magnitude could be sensitized solely to the effects of random molecular spreading caused by diffusion in a way that permits a direct measurement. <br /> <br /> "Carr and Purcell's proposed MR sequences sensitized the MR spin echo to the effects of diffusion" Johansen-Berg Diffusion MRI 6. As a result they were able to develop "a rigorous mathematical framework to measure the diffusion coefficient from such sequences. This elevated NMR to being a ‘gold standard' for measuring molecular diffusion" ibid. CONDITION & DETAILS: First edition in original wraps. Lancaster: American Physical Society. Very very slight wear at the foot of the spine and at the edges of the wraps. Very good condition. American Physical Society paperback

1935158578N.p.: N.p. 1935. Vintage photograph of architect Timothy L. Pflueger civil engineer Charles H. Purcell editor and writer Rob Wagner and photographer Walter G. Swanson standing at the base of the then-incipient San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge circa 1935. Annotations in manuscript ink and pencil on the verso.<br /> <br /> Purcell and Pflueger both oversaw the construction of the Bay Bridge-Purcell being the Chief Engineer and Pflueger serving on the committee of architects for the project. <br /> <br /> Rob L. Wagner is best remembered today as the editor and publisher of "Script" a left-leaning weekly literary film magazine published in Beverly Hills between 1929 and 1949. A lifelong Socialist and advocate for progressive causes Wagner used "Script" to give a voice to blacklisted screenwriters including Dalton Trumbo and Gordon Kahn and prominent leftists including Upton Sinclair Max Eastman and William C. deMille. <br /> <br /> While Wagner's involvement with Pflueger Purcell and Swanson is unclear it is evident that Wagner maintained many connections with powerful leaders in California. <br /> <br /> 10 x 8 inches. Very Good plus lightly worn at the right corners. N.p. unknown
