Disk space
by a.morland＠psychology.york.ac.uk 30 Sep '08

30 Sep '08

Dear All, One of the disk partitions used to store analyzed data is full. As an emergency measure the disk partition is being extended so that analysis can continue. The extension of the partition will slow access time considerably this morning, so it would be wise to postpone heavy duty analysis until this afternoon. Thanks Tony

YNiC-based publications. Please respond ASAP
by a.ellis＠psych.york.ac.uk 17 Sep '08

17 Sep '08

Dear all University Research Committee has delivered its report on YNiC following the review that was conducted in June. The report compliments YNiC on having reached the point it has, notes (inevitably) the need for more external grant income, and makes a variety of points about the relationship between Psychology and YNiC, the committee structure etc. that are prefectly acceptable and already being addressed. The department is required to make a formal response to the review. It would be good to include in that response the growing list of the publications that are now emerging from YNiC, along with the conference presentations. I attach the most up-to-date list I have. Please could you let me know of any changes or additions. A response by the end of Friday would be very helpful. With thanks Andy

Simon Duckett and I have organised a chemistry/YNiC hyperpolarisation team meeting this morning where we are discussing MRI/NMR theory.

All are welcome and the talk will start at 9.30 A presentation on the mathematical background to NMR and MRI will be presented. The talk will be mainly on Density matrices, Product operators and the theory behind double quantum states selection in polarised molecules.
