Scope

  This one-day symposium, a post-conference of IW-FIRT 2017/DHP-TST 2017 in University of Fukui, will be held on March 10, 2017, at Kobe University to discuss the recent progresses of the spectroscopic applications of the THz region in molecular science. The THz region is an important frequency region to explore structures, interactions, and dynamics of various molecular systems in the fields of chemistry, biology, physics, and material science. The symposium provides an international forum for discussing advances at the forefront of THz research in informal atmosphere.

Discussion topics;
  • THz ESR under strong magnetic field
  • Applications of THz spectroscopy to various molecular systems such as polymers and biological systems
  • Bioscience in magnetic resonance
  • Venue

    Takigawa Memorial Hall, Rokkodai 2nd campus, Kobe University
