Over the years, I have made much use of the Bruker Almanac. My bookshelf still holds several copies from the past 20 years or so. For those who have never seen a copy, it contains a great deal of useful information for NMR, EPR, ENDOR, IR and mass spectrometry. The NMR information includes, useful NMR formulas, chemical shift tables for some of the commonly observed isotopes, reference compounds, frequency tables etc... Recently Bruker has released its almanac in an iPod / iPhone app. Not only can you use your iPod / iPhone to take a course on Fourier transforms but you can also use it as an NMR reference book. The Bruker Almanac app is a very useful tool making it convenient to have a great deal of NMR information in your pocket - and at the console where it is most often needed. How often have you awakened at 2:18 am. and wondered what the chemical shift range is for 99Ru? Well .... now you can quickly look it up and go back to sleep. Below are three screen shots from the app. Good job Bruker!

Bruker Almanac for iPhone/iPod touch
Published annually for over three decades, Bruker Almanac has been a tradition in Bruker's history, providing useful information to many scientists around the world. This almanac is now available as a free application for iPhone/iPod touch/iPad that can be downloaded from the iTunes store (download link). Bruker Almanac App provides several handy tables of useful NMR information.

Attenuator app for iPhone/iPod touch
Tim Burrow (University of Toronto) wrote a utility application for the iPhone/iPod touch that calculates attenuation values:

Attenuator is a utility for anyone working with radio frequency sources and needs to know power and voltage after attenuation.
You can specify an input voltage (Vpp or Vrms) and dB of attenuation to get the output voltage, power and attenuation. The impedance can be specified, typically 50 Ohm for most systems.
