OpenVnmrJ is the Open Source parts of VnmrJ 4.2

OpenVnmrJ offers the benefits of a state-of-the-art NMR acquisition and processing software, while maintaining the required flexibility to control auxiliary equipment such as the microwave source. The specific version of OpenVnmrJ and its functions to operate a single-board NMR spectrometer are released as Open Source to make it available to entire research community.

The software runs on Linux: Centos 6 and Ubuntu 14.02, Trusty Tahr are the currently targetted hosts. As a datastation, the software runs on OS X 10.09 to 10.11.

OpenVnmrJ is designed to be very extensible with:

  • A rich set of macros, written in MAGICAL
  • A very configurable interface, using XML assets
  • A comprehensive library of pulse programs, written in C, usually with macros and XML files to ease setting up experiments and processing data
  • All these are open sourced and can use help to maintain code, fix bugs, add new features, and improve the user experience for all uses of OpenVnmrJ.
