β-detected nuclear magnetic resonance (β-NMR) is a sensitive spectroscopic technique well-suited for interrogating matter at the microscopic level. It is quite akin to “conventional” magnetic resonance techniques (e.g., NMR, MRI, etc.), but uses the high-energy β-emissions from radioactive probe nuclei for signal detection. While the requirement of a radioactive source limits implementations to specialized facilities (e.g., particle accelerators or nuclear reactors), the technique is uniquely able to probe material environments that are inaccessible through other means of study.
A modern implementation of the β-NMR technique can be found at TRIUMF’s ISAC facility in Vancouver, BC. Additional information can be found at http://bnmr.triumf.ca. An unabridged compilation of publications detailing the experiments performed there (mostly on materials science) is given below. The list is organized into the following catergories:
