Proceedings of the Ninth International Bologna Conference on Magnetic Resonance in Porous Media, 13-17 July 2008, Cambridge, USA, Conference Proceedings Series American Institute of Physics, volume 1081

The International Bologna conference of Magnetic Resonance in Porous Media is devoted to the progress in Magnetic Resonance in Porous Media and to our understanding of Porous Media themselves, and to stimulate the contact among people from various parts of Academia and Industry. Researchers in Physics, Chemistry, Engineering, Life Sciences, Mathematics, Computer Sciences, and in Industrial Applications will benefit from exchange of ideas, experiences, and new approaches. Topics include innovative techniques to study structure, behavior of fluids, and their interactions in every kind of natural and artificial materials, including rocks, cements, biological tissues, foodstuffs, wood, particle packs, sediments, pharmaceuticals, zeolites, and bioconstructs. New data acquisition and processing techniques are also strong features. This year’s conference (MRPM9) also incorporates the 8th Colloquium on Mobile NMR (CMMR8)
