NMR and EPR called “dynamic nuclear polarization” is very advanced and has
already been successfully applied in magnetic resonance imaging [139].
Acknowledgments This tribute to Hermann Staudinger is based on my work at the Max Planck
Institute for Polymer Research in Mainz for more than 25 years. It has provided me with a unique
scientific environment, in which new ideas and approaches prospered. It gives me great pleasure to
thank my colleagues and coworkers for all their contributions. Special thanks are due to Dariush
Hinderberger for his suggestions concerning the EPR studies described in this chapter.
