  "term": "Nuclear Magnetic Resonance",
  "field": "Environment",
  "definition": "1. Spectroscopic method of measuring the magnetic moment of elementary particles such as atomic nuclei, protons or electrons.\n\n2. A physical phenomenon involving the interaction of atomic nuclei placed in an external magnetic field with an applied electromagnetic field oscillating at a particular frequency. Magnetic conditions within the material are measured by monitoring the radiation absorbed and emitted by the atomic nuclei. It is the underlying principle of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI).",
