THE MATHEMATICS OF NMR Exponential Functions Differentials and Integrals Matrices Coordinate Transformations Convolutions The Fourier transform Exponential Functions The number 2.71828183 occurs so often in calculations that it is given the symbol e. When e is aised to the power x, it is often written exp(x) e=exp(x)=2.71828183 Logarithms based on powers of e are called natural logarithms. If Many of the dynamic NMR processes are exponential in nature. For example, signals decay exponentially as a function of time. It is therefore essential to understand the nature of exponential curves. Three common exponential functions are y=e-X/t y=(1-e-x/t)

When e is raised to the power x, it is often written exp(x). e x = exp(x) = 2.71828183x Logarithms based on powers of e are called natural logarithms. If x = ey then ln(x) = y, Many of the dynamic NMR processes are exponential in nature. For example, signals decay exponentially as a function of time. It is therefore essential to understand the nature of exponential curves. Three common exponential functions are y = e-x/t y = (1 - e-x/t)

An integral can also be considered a summation; in fact most integration is performed by computers by adding up values of the function between the integral limits A vector is a quantity having both a magnitude and a direction. The magnetization from nuclear spins is represented as a vector emanating from the origin of the coordinate system. Here it is along the +z axis In this picture an the vector is in the XY plane between the +X and +Y axes. The vector has X and Y components and a magnitude equal to (X2+Y2)12 Matrices A matrix is a set of numbers arranged in a rectangular array. This matrix has 3 rows and 4 columns and is said to be a 3 by 4 matrix
