The definitions for many of these were obtained from Concepts in Magnetic Resonance, Vol. 10 59-62 (1998) © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Other definitions have come from various NMR literature sources. If you have an acronym that describes an actual NMR experiment, please let us know. Give us the acronym, its expansion, and if possible, a brief description of what it would be used for and a primary journal citation.
