Abstract

Abstract. Change is inherent to time being transient. With the NMR-MOUSE (MObile Universal Surface Explorer) having matured into an established NMR tool for nondestructive testing of materials, this forward-looking retrospective assesses the challenges the NMR-MOUSE faced when deployed outside a protected laboratory and how its performance quality can be maintained and improved when operated under adverse conditions in foreign environments. This work is dedicated to my dear colleague and friend Geoffrey Bodenhausen on the occasion of his crossing an honorable timeline in appreciation of his ever-continuing success of fueling the dynamics of magnetic resonance.
