ABSTRACT
In 1945, the physicist Felix Bloch of Stanford University, along with Edward Purcell of Harvard University, succeeded in measuring the so-called nuclear spin resonance of liquids. Both researchers received the Nobel Prize in physics for this detection. The effect is based on the fact that the nucleons of atoms have their own rotation; this rotation is the spin that generates a magnetic field. If (a probe of) a material is brought in a
