nuclear magnetic resonance

[′nü·klē·ər mag′ned·ik ′rez·ən·əns]
(physics)
A phenomenon exhibited by a large number of atomic nuclei, in which nuclei in a static magnetic field absorb energy from a radio-frequency field at certain characteristic frequencies. Abbreviated NMR. Also known as magnetic nuclear resonance.
