<Peter Atkins> investigated electron-spin resonance and its time-dependent interpretation, as well as electromagnetic properties of matter such as optical activity and intermolecular forces. His work connects <quantum mechanics> with experimentally measured molecular responses.

In a time-resolved measurement, the evolution of a signal provides information absent from its equilibrium value. Spin relaxation therefore connects the electronic state of a molecule with its interactions and dynamics.https://www.chem.ox.ac.uk/people/peter-atkins[Oxford profile: research interests]{ref}
