title: The use of quantified maximum entropy methods for optimising information from electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy.
abstract: A quantified maximum entropy method is applied to the optimisation of analytical information from EPR spectra of free radicals. Statistically meaningful errors are produced for the positions and intensities of all spectral peaks and considerable improvements in sensitivity compared with conventional spectral enhancement procedures are obtained with measurements of the intensities of spectra of known radicals.
