Abstract

This review outlines the recent theoretical and computational developments for the prediction of motional electron paramagnetic resonance spectra with introduced spin probes from molecular dynamics simulations. The methodology is illustrated with applications to thermotropic and lyotropic liquid crystals at different phases and aggregate states.
