NMR:
* Nuclear simply means we are concerned with the nucleus of the atoms we are interested in, and specifically, only those which are "NMR active" (Common ones being Hydrogen-1 and Carbon-13).
* Nuclear simply means we are concerned with the nucleus of the atoms we are interested in (so the protons and neutrons).
* In essence, any atoms that have an odd number of protons or neutrons (or both) will behave like magnets. This is due to their '[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spin_(physics) spin]'.

* By exposing atoms to a magnetic field and RF of a given frequency, we can put them into resonance. This can be measured, and is the basis for the technique.
