The goal of this project is to try to understand the properties of fundamental particles - it is clearly basic research. However to be successful requires innovative technical advances in both physics and engineering. This does not guarantee that patentable ideas or commercial devices may occur. Sometimes companies are intrigued by our requirements and are stimulated into providing a new or improved product. A symbiotic relationship may ensue with feedback to the company from our tests and use of the product. This in turn helps the company to improve the instrument. For instance our requirements on microwave power and frequency have interested Varian, Canada while the contributions of Oxford Instruments to the project indicate a similar interest. It should be pointed out that the Liverpool NMR system, which we would purchase, grew out of a project similar to this and is now the standard NMR detector in most laboratories.
