Isotope¶

class mrsimulator.spin_system.isotope.Isotope(*, symbol: str)¶

Bases: pydantic.main.BaseModel

The Isotope class.

symbol¶

The isotope symbol given as the atomic number followed by the atomic symbol.

Type: str (required)

Example

>>> # 13C isotope information
>>> carbon = Isotope(symbol='13C')
>>> carbon.spin
0.5
>>> carbon.natural_abundance # in %
1.11
>>> carbon.gyromagnetic_ratio # in MHz/T
10.7084
>>> carbon.atomic_number
6
>>> carbon.quadrupole_moment # in eB
0.0

Attribute Description

`spin`	Spin quantum number, I, of the isotope.
`natural_abundance`	Natural abundance of the isotope in units of %.
`gyromagnetic_ratio`	Reduced gyromagnetic ratio of the nucleus given in units of MHz/T.
`atomic_number`	Atomic number of the isotope.
`quadrupole_moment`	Quadrupole moment of the nucleus given in units of eB (electron-barn).
