Molecular Spectroscopy by Rob Schurko
The main focus of this note is the various forms of optical spectroscopy, including rotational, vibrational and electronic spectroscopy, as well as a brief look at photoelectron spectroscopy and lasers. The note finishes with an introduction to radiofrequency spectroscopy techniques, including nuclear magnetic resonance and electron spin resonance. The purpose of this note is to provide an advanced level undergraduate student in Chemistry or Physics with a general overview of molecular spectroscopy. Specifically, the underlying principles of spectroscopy are examined using quantum mechanics, the interaction of light and matter, and group theory as starting points.

Structure Determination Using Spectroscopic Methods
This note focuses on how spectroscopic techniques can be integrated to determine the structure of unknown molecules. It starts off with an overview of the electromagnetic spectrum and basic 1H NMR, moving on to much advanced discussion about how NMR can be combined with other methods such as IR, UV, and mass spectrometry for an overall structural analysis. It goes over chemical shifts of protons, coupling constants, and the use of 2D NMR for obtaining detailed structural information. Other topics discussed include multinuclear NMR, dynamic NMR and conformational, as well as chemical exchange rates measurement. This note is perfect for students and researchers who want to use several spectroscopic methods in the determination of the structure of a compound.

Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy
This note focuses on the applications of Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (MRS) in clinical and non-clinical practice. The book is divided into two parts: MRS inside the clinic, such as imaging and analyzing metabolic processes in vivo, which will be presented in the first part of the book, and applications of MRS outside the clinic in fields including biochemistry, neuroscience, and pharmacology. As the note discusses both clinical and research applications, it allows for a very comprehensive look at how MRS can be used to probe biochemical and metabolic processes. This note would be an excellent resource for students and professionals in the medical and scientific communities.
